Braised Chicken With Potatoes


Has anyone tried these odd looking potatoes? Shaped like bananas, yellow in color? Well, these are the Fingerling Potatoes! There are several variety of this kind of potatoes but; I like the yellow ones. I read that these potatoes are favorites among chefs too! I like them because they have a nutty flavor and creamy texture.
