Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes (russet or Yukon gold), peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or your favorite herb)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or any melting cheese of your choice)
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook until they become soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the thinly sliced potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out in an even layer. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and let the potatoes cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until they become tender and slightly golden brown. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Once the potatoes are tender, remove the lid and let them cook for an additional 5 minutes to achieve a crispy texture.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the potatoes, covering them evenly. You can also add some extra dried thyme or your preferred herbs for added flavor.
- Cover the skillet again with the lid and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once the cheese has melted, remove the skillet from the heat. If desired, garnish with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color and added freshness.
- Allow the Pan-Fried Potato Pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
- Serve the delicious Pan-Fried Potato Pie as a side dish for your main course or enjoy it as a hearty and satisfying breakfast or brunch option.
