Pour about a cup of chicken stock over the potatoes. The goal is to cover the bottom and com up the sides just a bit. You may need a bit more if you skillet is larger.
• Increase the heat to medium high and bring the stock to a boil. Cover the pan with a lid or piece of foil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
• Heat your oven broiler with the rack in the top position. Uncover the pan and place the skillet under the broiler for about 5 minutes, or until the top potatoes have browned.
