skillet potatoes

A lot of pan fried potatoes (or crispy breakfast taters) take way longer than they should. Below are our top tips for pan-fried potato perfection.

Perfect Pan Fried Potatoes

lb. baby potatoes,

vegetable oil

olive oil

tbsp. rosemary

garlic powder (optional)

chili powder (optional)

Kosher salt

black pepper

Great recipe. I added a smoked Gouda cheese sauce and topped them with cheddar, bacon, chives, and parsley. Family loved it!

I tried these this morning and they were the easiest and the best tasting pan fried potatoes i have ever made. I even added some onion and diced green peppers and that was awesome!

First time doing a raw fried potatoe recipe that was successful.   Thanks for the great tips.

This is a good recipe, but I just want to add a little!

Grossly underestimates the actual amount of time you need to fry potatoes, but you can actually skip the soaking part which is nice. You really should fry in two batches if you want to actually get your potatoes brown without steaming them. After I fry the second batch, I combine the first with second in the pan and then add a splash of vinegar, and some fresh chopped parsley. 

Taste as you go, but don’t forget a splash of vinegar or even lemon. Just a little goes a long way and really brightens the dish. 

salt, fat, acid!!!

i cut the potatoes into 1/4 inch cubes and added onion.  They were amazing, took the leftovers tossed with a bit of mayo, grainy dijon mustard and a tiny squeeze of lemon for a potato salad to have with lunch.  It’s on the summer rotation for surez

Super easy.  This worked out great with potatoes we just harvested out of a grow bag from the backyard.  The timing was very helpful.  I am not good at judging done-ness so the four minutes a side and two minutes stirring really kept me from over cooking.  Used rosemary from the garden and my son requested bacon salt (he tells me it's kosher).  Thank you so much!

I'll definitely make these again. The thinner cut absorbed the spices better, or maybe that was because, except for S&P, I added them close to the end (oregano, powdered garlic, chile powder & rosemary). Medium-high temperature was too high to control burning, a bit closer to medium worked better. Also needed about a teaspoon more oil than the 2 Tabs.

Amazing.  Been frying potatoes for decades, and this is the best recipe I have found.  Thanks

potatoes: Peel and quarter the potatoes. Place prepared quartered potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and zap for 3 1/2-4 1/2 minutes covered with a microwave lid. Insert a knife into the thickest part of the potato, the knife should go through with some resistance. Let potatoes cool to room temperature. You can also refrigerate the potatoes once cooled and use the next day. Just dice the potatoes up into roughly 1/2 inch pieces before you add them to the skillet. They chop up easier if they've had a chance to hang out in the refrigerator.

Add the potatoes in a single layer, season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika, toss to coat evenly. Cook the potatoes for a total of 8-10 minute, flipping and tossing them every 2-3 minutes to ensure even browning. Taste for seasonings and adjust to preference. Serve immediately.

Do you cook more with butter or olive oil?

So good! I didn't follow the recipe exactly, but what I made came out fantastic. I added an extra clove of slice garlic with the butter and omitted the rosemary since I didn't have any, I was very generous with the salt and sparing with the pepper, covered the pan with some foil in the oven, and when they looked like they were about ready I added two move cloves of minced garlic on top and a little cream and let it sit for another few minutes in the oven before we ate it. Delicious!

Awesome recipe...  I was thinking this will beca baked potato but it is a nice center!  I used roasted garlic infused olive oil instead  of regular chopped garlic and it was amazing!

Burned garlic. Caveat emptor. Add it later. 350 F or 450 F?

Is it me, or do these other 4 reviews seem fake?

I've been cooking for decades now, so I used this more as a guide. I'm not a timer kinda gal when it comes to stovetop cooking. I'm so glad I did the five minutes intervals, and kicking the heat a little bit at the end was the key to crispy and brown. Thank you for sharing!
