Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Let boil for 5 minutes, then drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the potatoes are boiling, dice the onion and red bell pepper into small pieces.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

Add the remaining olive oil and unsalted butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the boiled potato cubes in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until they develop a golden crust on one side.

Step 5

Flip the potatoes and cook on the other side for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning.

Step 6

Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Stir well to evenly coat all the ingredients.

Step 7

Add the sautéed onions and bell peppers back to the skillet. Stir to combine and let cook together for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and freshness.

Step 9

Serve hot as a side dish for breakfast or brunch and enjoy the crispy, flavorful home fries!
