Ingredients

2 lb red potatoes washed and cubed (NOT peeled)
1 tsp salt plus more for water
½ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp unsalted butter
3 tbsp sour cream
½ cup chicken broth
¼ cup milk
1 tbsp parsley

Instructions

Place the washed and cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover them with salted water. Place the pot on the stove over high heat. Allow the water to come to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium. Simmer the potatoes for approximately 20 minutes, or until they are fork tender.
Remove the pot from heat, drain the potatoes and then return them to the pot. Add the salt, pepper, butter, sour cream, broth and milk. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes together with the ingredients until the potatoes are smooth and the ingredients are incorporated. Fold in the parsley and serve.
