Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter sub ghee
- 1 sweet yellow onion chopped
- 3 russet potatoes washed and cubed
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt more, to taste
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Serving Suggestion:
- ketchup
- hot sauce
Instructions
- Sauté: Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons butter (or ghee), and let it melt, swirling to coat the pan. Add 1/2 the onions and let reduce for 2 minutes, stirring fairly constantly.
- Cook Potatoes: Add potatoes and stir to coat. Cover and cook potatoes, uncovering to stir often, continue cooking on medium heat for approximately 10-15 minutes, adding the additional tablespoon of butter, as needed, to ensure the potatoes don't dry out or stick to the pan.
- Season: Add remaining onion, 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Mix to combine and cook another 5 minutes and then start testing the potatoes for taste and firmness. Add additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve: Once the potatoes have reached your desired firmness, serve immediately with ketchup and over easy eggs.
Notes
- Paleo/Whole30: if you are concerned with paleo/Whole30 use ghee instead of butter and serve with compliant ketchup.
- Storage: any leftover potatoes can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
