📋 Ingredients:
- 4 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced 🥔
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced 🧅
- 3 tablespoons olive oil 🛢️
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder 🧄
- 1 teaspoon paprika 🌶️
- Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) 🌿
📝 Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Set the temperature:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Potatoes & Onions:
- Slice the veggies:
- Thinly slice the potatoes and onions into even slices so they cook evenly.
- Mix the seasonings:
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Combine Ingredients:
- Toss the potatoes & onions:
- Place the sliced potatoes and onions in a large mixing bowl. Pour the seasoned olive oil mixture over them and toss to coat everything evenly.
4. Arrange on the Baking Sheet:
- Spread evenly:
- Spread the seasoned potatoes and onions in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they aren’t overlapping too much for maximum crispiness.
5. Bake:
- Cook in the oven:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking. You want them to be golden brown and crispy on the edges, with the onions caramelized.
6. Serve:
- Garnish and enjoy:
- Once the potatoes and onions are done, remove them from the oven. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
🍽️ Tips:
- For extra crispiness: Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 15-30 minutes before cooking. Drain, pat dry, and proceed with the recipe.
- Spice it up: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes for a little heat.
- Add cheese: Sprinkle with grated Parmesan or cheddar cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking for a cheesy twist.
