Ingredients

• 4 medium Red potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skins on for added fiber and nutrients.

Step 2

Cut the potatoes into even 1/4-inch thick slices. This ensures they cook evenly and become nicely crispy.

Step 3

Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl and add the olive oil. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly with the oil.

Step 4

Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the potatoes.

Step 5

Toss the potatoes again until the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned potatoes in an even layer. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Step 7

Cook the potatoes for about 10-12 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 8

As you finish each batch, place the cooked potatoes on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Once all the potatoes are cooked, transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving to add a pop of color and freshness.

Step 11

Serve immediately as a side dish or as a topping for salads or bowls.
