Home Fries With Sweet Onions

Breakfast and Home Fries just seem to go hand-in-hand where I live.  I love potatoes of any kind and I could eat them day and night, especially these.  I had used a cast iron skillet which I love, it also adds some iron in to your diet. These are a nice golden brown crispy potatoes, sure to please.

What You Will Need:
Cast Iron Frying Pan - Skillet *If you don't have one a frying pan of any kind is fine*
Measuring Spoons
Vegetable Peeler
Sharp Knife
Paper Towel
Medium Size Microwavable Bowl
Spatula or Wooden Spoon
Oven Mitts

Ingredients:
1-Medium Size Sweet Onion, Peeled and Sliced
6-Medium Potatoes Washed, Peeled and Cubed *Sometimes I leave the skins on*
1-Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2-Tablespoons Butter
1-Teaspoon Ground Pink Himalayan Sea Salt Or Other Salt
1/2-Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1-Tablespoon Ground Smoked Paprika
1-Tablespoon Dried Parsley Flakes


Directions:
Place the cast iron frying pan in a cold oven, set the oven temperature to 400-degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature reaches 400-degrees, put on your oven mitts and remove, place on your stove top. Be Careful, this is extremely hot!!  Turn your burner on to medium high heat, add the butter and olive oil to the frying pan, let the butter melt and the oil warm up. Add in the onions and cook until they caramelize, turn a light golden brown color.



While the onions are caramelizing, in the medium bowl, put in the cubed potatoes, paprika, parsley, salt and pepper. Toss - mix the potatoes completely with the seasonings with your hands or spatula until completely coated. Place in to the microwave and microwave for 10-minutes.  Remove the onions off of the burner when caramelized, use your oven mitts, shut the burner off.  Now add the cooked potatoes into the onions, gently stir with the spatula until everything is well coated.  Put your oven mitts back on and place back in to your oven.  Bake potatoes until they are crispy and golden brown about 15-minutes or so.  Put your oven mitts back on and remove the hot frying pan from the oven, place on a flat heat-resistant top and serve.


I had served these Home Fries with Praline Brioche French Toast Casserole, fresh strawberries and thick-slab no nitrates bacon.  I bake my bacon in the oven, these recipes are also listed here on my blog.
