Crispy golden potatoes fried with sweet caramelized onions and simple seasonings—an easy, old-fashioned side dish that goes with just about anything! 😍

🛒 Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 3 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp paprika
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp salt, or to taste
• ¼ tsp onion powder
• ¼ tsp red pepper flakes, optional
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the potatoes:
   Wash and thinly slice the potatoes. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
2. Heat the skillet:
   Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Fry the potatoes:
   Add the potatoes in an even layer. Cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they begin to turn golden and crispy.
4. Add the onions:
   Add the sliced onions and cook for another 8–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender and the onions are caramelized.
5. Season:
   Sprinkle with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes. Toss well and cook for another 1–2 minutes.
6. Finish & serve:
   Remove from the heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve hot. 🥔🔥

💡 Tip

For extra-crispy potatoes, don’t overcrowd the skillet. Cook in batches if necessary and let the potatoes sit for a couple of minutes between stirring.
