Instructions

  1. Peel and slice the potatoes to 1/4-inch thick.
  2. Place the potatoes into a large pot with enough water to cover them. Add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the temperature to simmer, and cook for 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  3. While the potatoes are cooking, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat in a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet.
  4. Add the onions and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Place a lid over the onions and stir every few minutes. When they just begin to color, remove the onions from the skillet and set aside, but do not wipe out the skillet.
  5. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet and layer the potatoes on top of the melted butter. Season with the remaining salt and ground black pepper. Toss to fully coat the potatoes with butter. Cook over medium heat until the bottoms of the potatoes are brown and crispy.
  6. Add the onions to the skillet. Flip the potatoes and cook for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown. Stir occasionally to make sure the potatoes brown evenly.
  7. Top with chopped parsley just before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute Russet potatoes for Yukon Gold but the dish will not have the same creamy texture.
