Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Russet Potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1/2 Onion
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black Pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Optional: Red Pepper Flakes

Prepare the Potatoes

Thoroughly wash and peel the potatoes. Dice them into roughly ½-inch cubes. Consistency in size will ensure even cooking.

Sauté the Aromatics

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme, cooking for another minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Cook the Potatoes

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. For extra crispiness, avoid stirring too frequently and allow the potatoes to brown on each side.

Finish with Parmesan

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly. Serve immediately.
