Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and peel the potatoes (peeling is optional if you prefer skin-on potatoes). Cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet.
When the oil is hot, add the cubed potatoes in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 5-6 minutes to allow them to develop a golden crust.
Stir the potatoes gently and continue to cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and golden brown on all sides.
Lower the heat slightly and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Sprinkle the potatoes with dried oregano, basil, thyme, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir to evenly coat the potatoes with the seasoning blend.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the potatoes with fresh parsley.
Serve warm as a side dish for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. Enjoy!
