Description

Simple and satisfying breakfast potatoes, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, ready in under 20 minutes.


Ingredients

  • 4 potatoes (Russet, red, or golden), cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon oil (olive, canola, vegetable, or avocado)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried parsley)


Instructions

  1. Prep your potatoes by cutting them into small, uniform ½-inch cubes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter and oil until the butter is foaming.
  3. Add chopped potatoes, tossing to coat in the butter-oil mixture. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder (save parsley for later). Cover and steam for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Remove the lid, stir, and continue cooking uncovered for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden and crispy.
  5. Check for doneness, ensuring they are fork-tender inside and crispy outside.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Feel free to adjust seasoning to taste, and consider serving with eggs or in a breakfast burrito for added variety.
