Skillet Fried Potatoes

Here's one of our favorite ways to do potatoes! The onions come out charred and caramelized and the potatoes get browned and crispy.

1 1/2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced
2 tbsp bacon grease or butter
1 medium onion, diced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Heat the bacon grease in a cast iron skillet over medium. Add the potatoes and onions, and toss to coat in the grease with the Old Country Kitchenware Spatula. Pat down in as even a layer as you can and leave them be, a few minutes, until the bottoms turn deep golden. Only then flip and let the other side crisp. Season, and keep going until they're browned and the onions are charred and caramelized.
