Categories     Potato

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs potatoes (Yukon Gold, white, or, red, are best)
too much butter
too much olive oil
6 cloves garlic, diced
1 medium cooking onion, diced
1/2 cup thyme or 1/2 cup dill, stems discarded before measuring
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Quarter potatoes, skin on, and boil them in eight cups of water with a teaspoon of salt for approximately 20 minutes, or until tender to the poke of a fork.
  • Drain water.
  • In your best large nonstick pan or well-seasoned skillet, over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • When the butter/oil mixture is hot, transfer potatoes to pan and use a spatula to chop the quarters into smaller pieces (there is no science here).
  • As the potatoes absorb the butter and oil during cooking, continue to add equal amounts of each, as required, to keep the pan well greased.
  • Sauté for 20 minutes, turning occasionally, or until potatoes begin browning on all sides.
  • If the potatoes start burning before they brown, reduce the heat.
  • Add garlic, and onions and continue cooking for 15 more minutes, or until potatoes, garlic and onions are all very browned and crispy.
  • When it seems potatoes are almost done to your liking, add herbs, salt, and pepper to taste and toss well.
  • Serve immediately on warmed plates.
  • Note: It’s all in the timing of adding the garlic and onions (which can only really be learned through trial and error).
  • Adding them too soon will cause them to burn before the potatoes are crisp, and too late will prevent the garlic and onion from fully caramelizing.

I love these potatoes! They're so easy to make and they always turn out perfect. I usually serve them with eggs and bacon for breakfast, but they're also great as a side dish for dinner.

I was hesitant to try these potatoes because I'm not a big fan of blackened food, but I'm so glad I did! The seasoning is perfect and the potatoes are cooked to perfection.

These potatoes are the definition of crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. I used russet potatoes and they turned out perfectly.
