  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs russet or Yukon gold potatoes, sliced or cubed
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (or vegetable oil)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Notes

  • Add bell peppers for extra color and flavor.
  • Sprinkle cayenne or red pepper flakes for a spicier version.
  • Swap olive oil for bacon drippings for smoky flavor.
  • Top with shredded cheddar or parmesan during the last 5 minutes for a cheesy twist.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven at 375°F for best crispiness.
