Crispy Oven Fried Potatoes and Onions

Print Recipe

Oven-fried potatoes and onions baked to crispy golden perfection with tender onions and a burst of fresh chives and flaky sea salt. A simple, flavorful side dish perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs red potatoes
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher fine salt
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 white onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tsp chopped chives
  • 1 tsp flaky salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400˚F.
  2. Cut the potatoes into quarters. Add to a pot and fill with enough water to cover the potatoes. Add kosher salt to the water and stir. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  3. Once it starts to boil, remove from heat, drain, and set aside.
  4. While the potatoes are coming to a boil, add olive oil and garlic to a rimmed baking sheet or baking dish. Place the pan in the oven to get hot for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  5. Remove pan from oven carefully. Add potatoes to the pan in an even layer, cut side down, avoiding any overlap.
  6. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy. Remove pan from the oven and flip so the other cut side is down. Sprinkle onions on top.
  7. Roast for another 20 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are crispy on the bottom. Stir occasionally to prevent onions from burning.
  8. Remove and top with flaky sea salt, black pepper, and chives.

Notes

Parboiling the potatoes with salt infuses flavor and helps achieve a crispy texture. Preheating the oil in the baking pan ensures extra crunch. Stir onions occasionally during roasting to avoid burning.
