Crispy Fried Potatoes & Onions

Golden, crispy, and full of flavor, these Fried Potatoes & Onions are a perfect side dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a hearty, delicious skillet-fried potato dish that’s crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Ingredients

  • 3-4 large potatoes – The star of the dish, providing a starchy, crispy texture.
  • 1 onion, sliced – Adds sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • Oil for frying – Helps achieve a golden-brown, crispy texture.
  • Green onion garnish – Brings a fresh and slightly sharp flavor.
  • Salt and pepper to taste – Enhances the flavor.

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and thinly slice the potatoes to about ⅛”–¼” thick for even cooking.
  2. Heat the Oil: In a seasoned or non-stick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Fry the Potatoes: Carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil. Keep the pan uncovered and fry for 20-25 minutes, flipping carefully to avoid breaking them.
  4. Add the Onions: When the potatoes start to crisp up, add the sliced onions and cook for another 5 minutes.
  5. Season & Garnish: Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Carefully mix, keeping the potatoes intact. Garnish with green onions.
  6. Serve & Enjoy: Serve hot with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.

Pro Tips

  • Use russet potatoes for a crispier texture, or Yukon Gold for a creamier bite.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan – this helps the potatoes crisp up instead of steaming.
  • Flip gently to keep the slices intact and prevent mushiness.
  • For extra crispiness, soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying, then pat dry.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with fried eggs and bacon for a hearty breakfast.
  • Serve alongside grilled chicken or steak for a satisfying dinner.
  • Enjoy as a snack with a side of ranch or hot sauce.
