Yummy! I did alter it a bit to cut back on the fat and calories. I used 1 T. butter and 1/2 T. olive oil and it was perfect! Thanks!

    I adore making skillet potatoes with thin sliced onions and leftovers for work entice envious glances!

    I know this recipe was intended for already cooked potatoes and I have done that many times over. This time, I didn't have leftover potatoes so I sliced a couple of red skinned potatoes,placed them in a pan and covered them with water, allowed them to cook until fork tender and then proceeded with the remainder of the recipe. Just before serving, the potatoes were lightly sprinkled with snipped chives.

    This was great. I used baby red potatos and left the skins on when I chunked them up. I also added some garlic, salt, pepper. The potatos came out lovely and golden with a bit of crunch. Zaar World Tour 05
