How to Make Chipotle Chevre Mashed Potatoes

  1. Place potatoes, minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a large pot. Cover with cold water by about 2 inches.
  2. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Drain the potatoes and garlic thoroughly.
  4. Return the pot to the stove over medium heat. Let the remaining moisture evaporate for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the softened butter and stir until melted and incorporated into the potatoes.
  6. Stir in the minced chipotle peppers (start with 1, add more for extra heat), chives, and softened chevre. Mash until smooth using a potato masher or electric mixer.
  7. Gradually add milk or cream, mixing until you reach your desired consistency. The potatoes should be light and fluffy.
  8. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
