Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Potatoes (cut into 1/2" cubes) Russet potatoes are recommended for the best texture.
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 1 tbsp Oil Use olive oil or coconut oil for different flavors.
  • 1 tbsp Chopped Parsley (fresh or 1/2 tsp dried) Add just before serving for freshness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cut all potatoes into small 1/2" cubes to ensure even cooking.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter and oil.
  3. Once hot, add the chopped potatoes and toss to coat in the butter and oil.
  4. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, saving the parsley for later. Cover to steam for 3-4 minutes.
  5. Remove lid and stir, then continue cooking uncovered, turning occasionally until evenly cooked and crispy.
  6. Once done, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For perfect texture, do not overcrowd the skillet. These potatoes can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
