INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 🥔 3 large russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
    • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

  • Oils and Fats

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 🧈 1 tablespoon butter

  • Spices and Seasonings

    • ¼ teaspoon paprika
    • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
    • 1 pinch garlic powder
    • 1 pinch onion powder
    • 🧂 salt, to taste
    • ground black pepper, to taste

STEPS

1

Arrange potatoes evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Cut potatoes into bite-sized chunks.

2

Heat butter and olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until butter melts and starts to turn brown. Swirl the pan and add potatoes; shake the pan to arrange in an even layer. Season with paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

3

Continue to toss potatoes and cook until reddish-brown, crusty, and crispy on the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes are cooking too quickly, reduce the heat to medium. Garnish with chives.
