Ingredients

  • 1 pound red potatoes (1/4-1/2 inch dice)
  • 4 Tablespoons neutral oil of choice
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (more to taste)
  • Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • Fresh Herbs (chives, rosemary, parsley) (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Spread the diced potatoes on a large microwave-safe plate and microwave on high until hot all the way through, slightly soft yet still a little crunchy. Start with 3 minutes, adding 1-2 minutes as needed, and tossing between each minute increment.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should coat the bottom of the pan. Once hot, carefully add the softened potatoes in an even layer.

  3. 3

    Let cook on one side to crisp up, approximately 4-5 minutes; then as they begin to turn golden brown, stir and continue cooking for 6-8 minutes.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium and stir in the seasonings. Continue cooking for 4-5 minutes until potatoes are tender and crisp. Garnish with fresh herbs as desired, and enjoy!
