French onion roasted potatoes bring together the comforting flavors of caramelized onions and roasted potatoes into one delightful dish. This recipe is perfect for a cozy dinner or a special occasion, offering an irresistibly savory and slightly sweet taste that will please any palate.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash, peel, and cube the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large bowl.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.
Add the brown sugar to the onions and continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes until they are caramelized and golden brown. Stir frequently to make sure they don't burn. Once done, remove from heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the caramelized onions and stir well. Pour this mixture over the cubed potatoes in the bowl. Toss to coat the potatoes thoroughly with the onion mixture.
Season the potato and onion mixture with salt and pepper to taste, and toss again to ensure even distribution.
Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and crisp, flipping halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your French Onion Roasted Potatoes as a delicious side dish!
Tips:
- Choose potatoes that are relatively uniform in size for even roasting.
- Cut the onions finely to ensure they caramelize well and blend seamlessly with the potatoes.
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of beef broth or a sprinkle of thyme before roasting.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.
- Stir the potatoes halfway through roasting to ensure they cook evenly and develop a golden, crispy exterior.
