Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Let boil for 5 minutes, then drain and set aside.
While the potatoes are boiling, dice the onion and red bell pepper into small pieces.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining olive oil and unsalted butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the boiled potato cubes in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until they develop a golden crust on one side.
Flip the potatoes and cook on the other side for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Stir well to evenly coat all the ingredients.
Add the sautéed onions and bell peppers back to the skillet. Stir to combine and let cook together for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and freshness.
Serve hot as a side dish for breakfast or brunch and enjoy the crispy, flavorful home fries!
