  • 1 large onion, sliced thinly
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil Essential for crispy texture
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Slice the onion thinly.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, sliced onions, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup. Spread the potato and onion mixture in a single layer.
Cooking
  1. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes. Stir halfway through.
