For extra crispiness, soak the potato cubes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking to remove excess starch. Don't overcrowd the pan! Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even browning. Experiment with different seasonings! Try adding a pinch of paprika, cayenne pepper, or dried herbs for a unique flavor profile. Serve immediately for the best texture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the foundation: Cut the peeled potatoes into uniform 3/4-inch cubes. Halve the onion, then slice into thin crescents, separating the layers. (5 minutes)
02
StepSear to perfection: Heat olive oil in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potato cubes, ensuring they form a single layer. Season generously with garlic salt and seasoned salt. Allow the potatoes to sear undisturbed for 5-8 minutes, developing a golden-brown crust. (8 minutes)
03
StepGolden rotation: Turn the potatoes and continue cooking, flipping every 5-8 minutes, until they are evenly browned and cooked through. (20 minutes)
04
StepIntroduce the aromatics: Once the potatoes have achieved the desired color, add the sliced onions. Stir occasionally, cooking until the onions soften and turn translucent, about 5-8 minutes. (8 minutes)
05
StepRest and savor: Carefully remove the crispy potatoes and onions from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Let cool for 2-5 minutes before serving. (5 minutes)
