Tips:

  • Yukon Gold potatoes are recommended for this recipe due to their creamy texture and ability to hold their shape well.
  • Soaking the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier potatoes.
  • Use a large skillet or griddle to ensure that the potatoes have enough space to cook evenly.
  • Season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
  • Add the butter and olive oil to the skillet before adding the potatoes to prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
  • To make the ranch seasoning, simply combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well blended.
  • Sprinkle the ranch seasoning over the cooked potatoes and toss to coat.
  • Serve the ranch potatoes immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives, if desired.
