Fast Herbed Potatoes

Need a potato side dish in a hurry? It is possible to have something ready in 10 minutes or less, using just 4 ingredients.

Ingredients:

Potatoes, sliced and cubed to whatever size you want
Butter--approximately 2 Tbsp.
Herbs of your choice (I used thyme and basil)
salt & pepper--a dash of each, optional

Simply cube the potatoes to the size you desire, keeping in mind that the smaller the potatoes are sliced, the faster they will cook up.  Melt the butter and pour over the top of the cubed potatoes, adding the herbs and salt/pepper at this time also. Stir the potatoes to coat with the butter/herb mixture, then place the bowl of potatoes into the microwave and cook them for 5-10 minutes, stirring once, about halfway through. (As different microwaves cook at different levels, you will need to check and see if your potatoes need to cook a little longer.)
