SAUTEED POTATO SLICES
Source: teriskitchen.com
This is a great idea for a simple side-dish with an elegant dinner when last minute preparations need to be minimized.

4 small to medium-sized potatoes
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
Herbs and seasonings to taste (see notes)
Salt and pepper to taste
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Peel potatoes if desired. Cook in lightly salted boiling water until just done, about 20 minutes depending on size of potatoes. Drain. (This step can be done several hours ahead. Refrigerate until use.) Cut cooked potatoes into slices about 1/4-inch thick. Heat oil or butter in fry pan over medium-high heat. Add potato slices and seasonings. Saut� until hot and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with grated cheese and heat until slightly melted. Serve immediately. 4 servings

Notes: The herbs used in this dish are dependent upon taste and the meal. Possibilities include, but are not limited to, garlic, rosemary, parsley, thyme, sage, or marjoram. Try to use herbs that will enhance the seasoning in the entree. If desired, the potatoes may be placed under a broiler after adding the Parmesan cheese for a crustier presentation.
