How to Make Rosemary Potatoes Microwave

  1. In an 8-inch square microwave-safe baking dish, combine 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 clove of minced garlic.
  2. Microwave on medium-high for 45 seconds, or until the butter is melted and fragrant.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 pound of small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large). Toss gently to coat.
  4. Cover the dish with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap, leaving a small vent for steam to escape.
  5. Microwave on high for 15-18 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork. If needed, add an additional minute or two, checking for doneness.
