Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz canned potatoes
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
Instructions
Drain the canned potatoes and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
If the canned potatoes are whole, cut them into bite-sized chunks.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter and olive oil, allowing them to melt and combine.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
Add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to achieve a golden crust on one side.
Sprinkle the paprika, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Toss everything gently to distribute the spices evenly.
Continue cooking the potatoes for another 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and crispy on all sides.
Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle freshly grated parmesan cheese over the hot potatoes and let it melt slightly.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy this simple yet flavorful dish!
