For the leeks, we only need the white and light green parts; cut them in half lengthwise and slice them thinly. We need about 4 1/2 cups.
Melt butter in a saucepan and cook the leeks for about 10 minutes over low heat until they are soft.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes, add them to the leeks, cover the saucepan, and cook until the potatoes are soft, making sure they do not brown, for about 10 minutes.
Add chicken broth, bring to a boil, and reduce the heat until the vegetables are cooked. Season with salt and pepper. When serving, sprinkle with chives.
