Description
Hearty oven fried potatoes & onions deliver crispy comfort straight from Mediterranean kitchens. Rustic ingredients and simple techniques ensure golden edges and satisfying flavor you’ll savor with each delicious bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large russet potatoes (peeled and sliced)
- 1 large onion (thinly sliced)
- 3 tablespoons (tbsps) olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) salt
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) black pepper
Instructions
- Warm the oven to a high temperature of 425F (220C) to ensure crisp exterior and tender interior of the potatoes and onions.
- Combine sliced potatoes and onions in a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly coating them with aromatic olive oil and a blend of zesty seasonings including garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Arrange the seasoned vegetable mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, carefully spreading them into a uniform, single layer to promote even roasting and maximize crispiness.
- Position the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 25-30 minutes, using tongs to carefully flip the vegetables midway through cooking to achieve a uniform golden-brown coloration and crisp texture.
- Once potatoes and onions have developed a beautiful caramelized exterior and reached a perfect tender consistency, remove from oven and optionally garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch of color and herbaceous flavor.
- Transfer immediately to a serving platter and enjoy while piping hot, savoring the delightful combination of crisp edges and soft, flavorful interior.
Notes
- Choose waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold for the best crispy texture and even browning.
- Use a sharp knife to slice potatoes and onions uniformly, ensuring consistent cooking and crispiness.
- For a low-carb version, swap potatoes with cauliflower or turnips to reduce calories and carbohydrates.
- Try herbs like rosemary or thyme to add extra depth and aromatic flavor to the dish.
