Description
Crispy Oven Fried Potatoes & Onions are a mouth-watering, flavor-packed side dish that will have your taste buds dancing. Perfectly golden and crispy on the outside, yet delightfully soft and fluffy on the inside, these oven-baked potatoes and onions are a simple yet impressive addition to any meal.
Ingredients
- 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes, sliced into rounds
- 1 large onion, sliced into thin wedges
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh if available)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced potatoes and onions. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and toss to coat them evenly.
3. Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes and onions. Toss again to ensure everything is well seasoned.
4. Spread the seasoned potatoes and onions out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overlapping for maximum crispiness.
5. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
6. Remove the Crispy Oven Fried Potatoes & Onions from the oven, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
Oven-frying these potatoes and onions is a healthier alternative to deep-frying, as it reduces the amount of oil and fat used. By tossing the vegetables in a small amount of olive oil and then baking them in the oven, you can achieve a delightfully crispy texture without the added grease and calories of traditional frying.
