Roasted Potatoes with Caramelized Onions
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 large potatoes (peeled and cut into cubes)
- 2 large onions (sliced thinly)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional, for extra flavor)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Place them in a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Caramelize the onions: Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes, until the onions soften and turn golden brown. If you want a deeper flavor, add a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar during the last few minutes of cooking.
- Roast the potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the outside.
- Combine: Once the potatoes are roasted, remove them from the oven and toss them with the caramelized onions. Sprinkle with a bit of dried thyme (if using) and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
