Instructions
🔥 Step 1: Preheat the Blackstone
- Heat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat (375-400°F).
- Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of oil onto the griddle and spread it evenly.
🔪 Step 2: Prep the Potatoes
- Wash and dice potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
- If you prefer extra crispy potatoes, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then pat them dry completely.
🥔 Step 3: Season the Potatoes
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with:
- Olive oil or melted butter
- Garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper
🔥 Step 4: Cook on the Blackstone
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the griddle.
- Let them cook without touching for 5 minutes to develop a crispy crust.
- Flip with a spatula and stir every 5 minutes for even browning.
⏳ Step 5: Final Touches & Serve
- After 15-20 minutes, check if the potatoes are golden and fork-tender.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately!
Notes
- For extra crispiness: Pat potatoes completely dry before seasoning.
- Want more flavor? Add bacon bits or shredded cheese in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- Meal Prep Friendly! Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat on the Blackstone or air fryer at 375°F for 5 minutes.
- Perfect Pairings: Serve with scrambled eggs, bacon, or inside a breakfast burrito.
