Ingredients

  • 15 oz canned potatoes
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Drain the canned potatoes and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

If the canned potatoes are whole, cut them into bite-sized chunks.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter and olive oil, allowing them to melt and combine.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to achieve a golden crust on one side.

Step 6

Sprinkle the paprika, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Toss everything gently to distribute the spices evenly.

Step 7

Continue cooking the potatoes for another 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and crispy on all sides.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle freshly grated parmesan cheese over the hot potatoes and let it melt slightly.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this simple yet flavorful dish!
