Main Ingredients

  • 3 pounds red potatoes, cut into small cubes
  • 2 large yellow onions, chopped into large chunks
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 0.25 cup mayonnaise
  • 0.25 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 bunch fresh chives, chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • In a large bowl, toss the cubed red potatoes and chopped yellow onions with the olive oil, seasoned salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
  • Spread the potato and onion mixture in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Roast for 60 to 75 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
  • Let the potatoes and onions cool for about 15 minutes after roasting.
  • Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, paprika, and black pepper in a medium bowl until smooth and creamy.
  • Gently fold the roasted potatoes and onions into the creamy dressing until well coated.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider adding garlic powder or fresh herbs to the vegetable mixture before roasting.
