Steps:
- Remove outer leaves; cut dark-green ends from leeks. Trim roots, keeping leaves attached. Halve lengthwise; rinse to remove grit.
- Bring broth to a boil in a large skillet. Add leeks; cover, and cook over medium-low heat, turning once, until easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 15 to 25 minutes. Using tongs, transfer leeks to a platter.
- Boil broth until reduced to 1/2 cup, 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Add butter; swirl to melt. Add parsley; season with salt and pepper. Spoon over leeks.

n.c@hotmail.comI love this recipe! The leeks are always so tender and flavorful. I usually serve them with mashed potatoes or rice, but they would also be great on their own.

jarridplaysg77@yahoo.comThe leeks were delicious! I made a few changes to the recipe, but the overall result was still amazing. I used chicken broth instead of water, and I added a bit of white wine. I also cooked the leeks for a little longer than the recipe called for, ju
