25 minute Pan Fried Potatoes

This is a super simple recipe that I found in a magazine a while back and I use it all the time (especially when I am too lazy to use a mandolin for oven fries or it is too hot to turn on the oven!) It has a great combination of soft and crispy potatoey-ness!
Pan Fried Potatoes
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil (Less if you desire)
1 teaspoon of Seasoning of choice. The potatoes above have garlic powder, but you could use season salt, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme. You can even combine (another one of our favorites is garlic and smoked paprika)...be creative!
Salt and Pepper to taste

Boil a large pot of salted water. Add potatoes and boil in salted water for 5 minutes; drain well.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add parboiled potatoes and Saute for 5 minutes without stirring. Stir and cook another 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
Season with desired seasoning combination, salt and pepper. Serve warm.
Makes 4 servings
