Balsamic Roasted Potatoes
I often buy those big bags of potatoes from the grocery store because they come out to be priced about the equivalent of buying a couple potatoes for dinner. The problem with those bags is that I always end up needing to quickly make them before they spud out of control. I saw this recipe and instantly knew they would be perfect for us. As I started making these something shocking happened- I RAN OUT OF CHICKEN BROTH. I always keep the cardboard carton in the fridge and usually have plenty on hand. Tonight, no such luck. Due to that my potatoes were not as glazed as they would have been but they were still mighty mighty tasty. I will 100% be making these again because they are a great side dish.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds new potatoes, halved or quartered if large

coarse salt and ground pepper
