You can either use the -nodes option from the pkcs12 utility or use the
rsa utility:
openssl rsa -in file.pem
This will give you an unencrypted base64 output.
If you want a human readable version then:
openssl rsa -in file.pem -text -noout
Lots of this stuff is now documented in the latest snapshots so for more
info RTFM :-)
