This easy Skillet Potatoes recipe is one of my favorites because it comes together so quickly! My kids love it with a little bit of cheese on top . . . but these red potatoes are delicious and flavorful without it.

Equipment

Large Skillet
Cutting Board
Chopping Knife

Ingredients

6 Tablespoons Olive Oil
6 red potatoes medium, cut into half inch chunks
1½ teaspoons dried parsley flakes
¾ teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon onion powder
¾ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

In a large skillet (either a non-stick or cast iron skillet), heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add potatoes to the skillet and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to make sure all potatoes are evenly cooked.
Stir in seasonings; cook and stir 5-10 minutes longer or until potatoes are browned and tender (final cooking time will depend on the size of the potato chunks).

Notes

The time that it takes to cook your potatoes will vary, depending on how big or small your cut your potatoes. I aim for smaller pieces so that the potatoes cook a little faster.
If you like your potatoes a little more crispy on the outside, turn up the heat just a little bit and let them get those dark spots on the outside.
