Lyonnaise Potatoes are an excellent side dish for any protein. This classic recipe of potatoes, onion, and garlic derives its name from the Lyon region in France.
Fill a medium saucepan three-quarters full with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes, and cook 10 to 15 minutes, or until fork-tender; drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Cut potatoes into 1/8-inch slices and place in a medium bowl; gently stir in salt and pepper then set aside.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat and saute onions until browned. Add onions to potatoes; mix well.
Spread mixture evenly in skillet and cook 12 to 14 minutes over medium heat, until potatoes are browned, turning halfway through cooking. Serve immediately.
