Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for a rustic texture, or peel them if desired.

Step 2

Dice the potatoes into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1 inch in size for even cooking.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the spices.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the seasoned potatoes to the skillet.

Step 5

Spread the potatoes in a single layer and let them cook undisturbed for about 5-7 minutes to develop a golden, crispy exterior.

Step 6

Flip the potatoes using a spatula and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 7

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to preference.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for a bright, herbal finish.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a side dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. These country taters pair perfectly with eggs, bacon, or roasted meat.
