Oven-Fried Potatoes And Onions

Golden, crispy, and full of savory flavor, these Oven-Fried Potatoes and Onions are roasted to perfection with turkey bacon, olive oil, and simple seasonings. They’re an easy, one-pan side dish that pairs beautifully with just about anything—from grilled meats to scrambled eggs.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium potatoes
  • 1 large onion
  • 4 ounces turkey bacon
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) for perfectly crisp potatoes with tender centers.
  • Wash and scrub the potatoes, then slice into thin, even rounds about ⅛ to ¼ inch thick.
  • Peel and slice the onion into thin rings and chop the turkey bacon into small pieces.
  • In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, onions, and bacon with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated—add a pinch of smoked paprika or dried thyme if you like.
  • Spread everything in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet so they roast, not steam.
  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and crisp with soft, caramelized onions.
  • For extra crunch, roast 3–5 minutes longer, keeping an eye to prevent burning.
