The Recipe

Ingredients & Instructions

Everything you need to make this dish at home.

Ingredients

  • 2 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 large apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), cored and diced
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp bourbon
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 12-15 minutes.
  2. In a separate pan, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium-low heat. Add sliced onions and cook slowly until deeply caramelized, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add diced apples to the caramelized onions and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until apples are slightly softened.
  4. Once potatoes are cooked, reduce heat to low and combine the caramelized onion and apple mixture with the potatoes in the skillet.
  5. Add bourbon, smoked paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld and bourbon to deglaze the pan.
  6. Remove from heat, stir in remaining butter and fresh parsley. Serve warm as a comforting fall breakfast dish.
