Roasted Tarragon Potatoes

Ingredients ~

8 to 10 small gold or red potatoes (see note)
3 tablespoons butter, divided
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon leaves, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation ~

Preheat the oven to 400° and line a shallow baking pan with parchment paper or foil.

Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and place in a large mixing bowl. Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and add to the bowl with the butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, toss to coat completely, then turn onto the prepared baking pan in a single layer. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and stir in the chopped tarragon. Place in a mixing bowl and add the potatoes. Toss to coat and serve immediately.
