Lemon Garlic Red Potatoes

I'll be honest, I don't fully understand the subtle differences between regular potatoes and red potatoes. It seems that they are used interchangeably much of the time. However, they also seem to be used for different things. Bah, I don't know. But I had an extra red potato from a red potato soup I made the other night and decided to find a good recipe for red potatoes. This ended up being fairly similar to THIS meal. Especially because I threw in a couple of chicken tenders to make it a main dish instead of just a side dish - but it would be really good served as a side dish sans-chicken.


Ingredients:
2 pounds red potatoes, quartered
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 lemon, juiced
Grated Parmesan cheese


Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Place potatoes in an 8x8 inch baking dish.
  3. In a small bowl combine melted butter, garlic, salt and lemon juice; pour over potatoes and stir to coat. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over potatoes.
  4. Bake, covered, in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
