Crispy Oven Breakfast Potatoes



Crispy Oven Breakfast Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1.25 lb. red potatoes, chopped
  • 1 sweet onion, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1.5 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 tsp. grill seasoning or any spice blend you like

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Place your baking sheet in the oven while it preheats. Cover it with foil for easier clean up if you like.
Toss the potatoes, onion, and pepper with olive oil and grill seasoning.
Carefully remove the baking sheet and spread out the potatoes on the baking sheet in one layer. Give the potatoes some space. This helps the potatoes to get crispy. If they are layered on top of each other they are more likely to steam than get crispy.
Bake for 25 minutes, shaking the pan 1-2 times during cooking.

Breakfast Potatoes with Apple



Breakfast Potatoes with Apple

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2-3 medium potatoes, washed but unpeeled
  • 1 medium onion (yellow or white)
  • 2 carrots, washed but unpeeled, optional
  • 1 cup mushrooms (about half of an 8 ounce package)
  • 1 red or yellow bell pepper, optional
  • ½ teaspoon red chili flakes 
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ to 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt, to taste
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground pepper, to taste
  • 1 medium apple 


Instructions
Heat the oil in a large, non-stick pan over medium heat.
Dice the potatoes into ½" cubes, doing your best to get them all about the same size, and add them to the pan. Feel free make them larger or smaller if you prefer, just note that will slow down or speed up the cooking time accordingly.From this point forward, you'll need to stir or toss the contents of the pan every minute or two.
Once the potatoes are in the pan, coarsely dice the onion and cut the carrots into ¼" coins.
After about 10 to 15 minutes, the potatoes will have softened up a bit and started browning . Add the onion and carrot.
Quarter the mushrooms and, if including the bell pepper, seed and remove the pith and cut into approximately ¾" squares.
Once the onions have softened (about 4 or 5 minutes), add the mushrooms and bell pepper, if using.
Sprinkle in the chili flakes, paprika, salt, and ground pepper. I find it's best to start with ½ teaspoon salt, stir, then taste to see if it needs more. That's also a good way to test the potatoes for doneness.
Cut the apple into ½" pieces. (I use an apple corer and divider to make quick work of it, and then discard the core and cut the wedges into triangles.)
Once everything is completely cooked, turn off the heat and stir in the apple. The goal is for the apple to warm up, but not become mushy.
Serve immediately.

Breakfast Potatoes with Easy Red Chile-Lime Hollandaise and Picked Jalapeno



Breakfast Potatoes with Easy Red Chile-Lime Hollandaise and Picked Jalapeno

INGREDIENTS

EASY RED CHILE-LIME HOLLANDAISE:

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice, plus more if needed
  • 2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more if needed
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

BREAKFAST POTATOES:

  • 1 1/4 pounds small red new potatoes
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 8 ounces ground Mexican chorizo
  • 1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Large pinch ancho powder
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus leaves for garnish
  • Sliced pickled jalapenos


DIRECTIONS

For the hollandaise: Put the egg yolks, lime juice, ancho, lime zest, salt and cayenne into a blender. Blend the egg yolk mixture until it lightens in color, about 20 to 30 seconds. With the motor running, slowly add the melted butter slowly and continue to blend until emulsified. Taste for seasoning, and add more salt or lime juice if needed. Cover and keep warm until ready to use.
For the potatoes: Place the potatoes in a pot with water to cover. Salt the water and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes until almost cooked through; a paring knife should meet with a little resistance when inserted into center. Drain the potatoes, cool slightly and cut into medium dice, then reserve for later use.
Heat the oil in a large nonstick saute pan over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Transfer the chorizo to a plate. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the butter to the pan, melt, and then add the potatoes. Toss well, season with salt and pepper, add the ancho and cook, pressing the mixture into the pan occasionally, until lightly golden brown and crisp. Stir in the chorizo. Remove from the heat, stir in the chopped cilantro and transfer to a large shallow bowl or platter.
Drizzle with the reserved hollandaise and top with jalapenos and cilantro leaves for garnish.

Perfect Potatoes Breakfast



Perfect Potatoes Breakfast

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 of a medium yellow onion, 
  • chopped coarse or fine, depending on your preference 4 medium russet potatoes, 
  • washed and scrubbed clean 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder 
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil- divided 


DIRECTIONS
Begin by baking your potatoes – I typically do this in the microwave. After scrubbing the potatoes, I poke them a few times with a fork and cook them in the microwave until fork tender which takes about 12 minutes in my microwave but will vary.  When the potatoes are cooked, allow them to cool for a few minutes, then chop them into 1 inch chunks. In a large skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Cook the onion until translucent, then remove the onions from the pan unless you like them crispy, in which case you can leave them in to cook with the potatoes. Add remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan and turn the heat up almost all the way. When the oil is hot, add the potatoes in a single layer. Once the potatoes are in the pan, don’t touch them! Allow them to cook for 5 minutes, or until the bottom is nice and crispy, then use a spatula to flip the potatoes. As the potatoes are cooking, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Continue cooking the potatoes until they are crispy and golden brown, which should take about 10 minutes. Stir the onions back in and serve immediately.

BEST EVER VEGAN BREAKFAST POTATOES



BEST EVER VEGAN BREAKFAST POTATOES

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound red potatoes, scrubbed clean and dried
  • 3-4 Tbsp vegan butter (or olive oil)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a skillet to medium heat, or an electric skillet to 350 degrees F.
"Bake" your potatoes in the microwave for 4-6 minutes total (flipping once halfway through) until they have a little give when squeezed. Alternatively, bake them in a 400 degree F oven placed directly on the rack for roughly 20-35 minutes, depending on their size, until soft to the touch.
Cut cooked potatoes into bite-sized pieces (I usually quarter mine), and place vegan butter 1 Tbsp at a time onto the hot skillet. Only add enough to accommodate all of your potatoes.

TIP: Place potatoes, one by one, onto the skillet directly in the melted butter ensuring both exposed cut sides touch the butter. This will ensure all sides get crispy brown.
Once all potatoes are on the skillet, spray the top with canola or olive oil (optional) and season with half of the seasonings. Spraying them with oil helps the seasonings stick to the skin.
After about 4 minutes, use a fork or spatula to tip the potato over onto its other side to brown evenly.
After another 3-4 minutes, flip the potatoes on their backsides (skin side down) and season with remaining salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook for another 2-4 minutes until crispy and golden brown on all sides.
Serve with hot sauce or Whiskey BBQ ketchup.
