Prep Time10 minutes minutes
Cook Time30 minutes minutes
Total Time40 minutes minutes
- 3 pounds potatoes, sliced thin
- 1 yellow onion, sliced thin
- 2 to 3 tablespoons avocado oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder, optional
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
In a large heavy bottomed skillet (like a cast iron skillet), add 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
Add the onion and sauté until the onion is caramelized, about 10 minutes.
Add a tablespoon of oil and the potatoes. Let the potatoes sit on the bottom of the skillet for about 5 minutes. Using a spatula, flip them often to help them brown evenly. Continue doing this until potatoes are cooked, about 20 minutes total. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, if needed.
When the potatoes are almost done season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Serve immediately
