QUICK & CRISPY HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Arrange potato pieces evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Cut potatoes into bite-size chunks.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When butter melts and starts to turn brown, swirl the pan and add the potatoes. Shake pan to arrange in an even layer. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
• As potatoes brown, toss them and keep turning them every few minutes until they are crusty and crispy-edged and a rich reddish-brown color, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes seem to be cooking too quickly, reduce heat to medium. Serve topped with chopped chives.

GARLIC HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, cover and cook over medium-high heat until just tender, about 6 minutes; drain.
• Heat the butter and olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat; add the potatoes and spread into a single layer. Cook, undisturbed, until they start browning on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and sprinkle with the paprika; flip the potatoes and cook 5 more minutes. Stir once, then continue cooking until the potatoes are mostly golden brown, about 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the garlic, pile the parsley on top and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Chop and mash together until finely minced. When the potatoes are done, add the garlic mixture to the skillet and toss to coat; cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

CRISPY HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes. Cut onion into 2 or 3 slices, then cut rings in half and separate the layers.
• Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed potatoes to the hot skillet and season with garlic salt and seasoned salt. Spread them out evenly over the bottom and allow to cook for 5 to 8 minutes without turning. Turn, and continue cooking, turning every 5 to 8 minutes, until evenly browned.
• When potatoes have reached the desired color, add onion. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until onion is slightly cooked, 5 to 8 minutes longer.
• Carefully remove potatoes and onions from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool for 2 to 5 minutes before serving.
