Healthy Fried Seasoned Potatoes
Sometimes you just need a healthy, quick side dish of fried, seasoned potatoes. This is the perfect side dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Equipment
- skillet
- cutting board
- wooden spoon
- sharp knife
- measuring spoons
- garlic press
Ingredients
- 8 medium potatoes
- 3 cloves fresh garlic
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tbsp Montreal steak seasoning, plus more to taste
- 1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper, plus more to taste
Instructions
- Wash potatoes and dice them small. Add the coconut oil (or other fat) to your skillet and turn the heat between medium and medium-high. You want a thick layer of oil coating the bottom of your skillet. Don't skimp out or else your potatoes won't brown or crisp properly.
- Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and stir them to get them coated well. Then let the potatoes sit for roughly 5 minutes so they can get golden brown and crispy on the bottom. Adjust the heat, as necessary.
- Add in 3 cloves of pressed garlic or minced garlic, Montreal seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well and let the potatoes sit again for between 4 to 5 minutes to get golden brown and crispy. (You can add more coconut oil now if there's not a good layer of fat on the bottom of your skillet to brown the potatoes.)
- Once most of the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, take the skillet off the heat. Taste the potatoes and adjust the seasonings, as necessary.
