Serves: Serves 4 to 6
Ingredients:
- 11⁄2 lbs. baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes, or new potatoes, unpeeled, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch chunks
- 3 TB. olive oil
- 1 large onion, sliced thin
- 1 cup skim milk
- 11⁄2 cups fat-free chicken broth
- 1⁄4 cup sherry or cooking wine
- 2 tsp. salt
- Salt and pepper

Directions:
- Peel and slice potatoes. Arrange slices in a microwave-safe baking dish and microwave on high for 10 minutes or until soft.
