Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yellow potatoes
- 2 large Yellow onion
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Scrub the potatoes clean and cut them into bite-sized cubes (about 1-inch).
Peel the yellow onions, then slice them thinly into half-moons.
Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the pan and cook, stirring often, for 10-12 minutes until the onions are soft and golden brown. Lower the heat slightly if they start to brown too quickly.
Remove the caramelized onions from the skillet and set aside.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil and butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Spread them out in an even layer and let them cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes to develop a golden crust.
Stir the potatoes and cook for another 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Add the minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to evenly coat the potatoes with the seasonings.
Return the caramelized onions to the skillet and gently toss them with the potatoes. Cook for 2 more minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Transfer the oniony potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or a hearty breakfast.
