Description
Crispy golden potatoes and sweet caramelized onions baked to perfection with garlic and olive oil. A simple, hearty side dish for any meal.
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges or cubes
- 1 large onion, sliced into thin strips
- 3 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley or thyme, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a baking sheet inside to heat.
- In a large bowl, toss potatoes and onions with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture onto the hot baking sheet in a single layer without overcrowding.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until potatoes are golden brown and crisp.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 20 minutes before baking, then pat dry. Leftovers reheat best in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes.
