Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, let’s get those potatoes ready! Start by washing them and cutting them into bite-sized pieces. I love using Yukon Gold potatoes because they have such a nice creaminess and hold their shape well. Once they’re diced, I give them a quick rinse to get rid of any excess starch. While you’re prepping, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in your skillet over medium heat. Once it’s hot, add the diced potatoes and season them with salt, pepper, and paprika. Sauté for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re golden brown and tender. Just imagine the lovely aroma filling your kitchen! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
