Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes cubed
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1-2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2-3 green onions sliced
  • Additional salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place potatoes in a large, shallow baking pan.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Roast, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat butter over low heat until melted. Continue cooking until butter turns a light golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Remove potatoes from oven. Pour the browned butter over the potatoes and sprinkle with brown sugar and green onions. Stir to coat potatoes evenly in the butter and brown sugar.
  • Return to oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and golden. Season with salt and pepper, if needed, before serving.
