Honey Mustard Skillet Potatoes are a delicious side dish featuring tender baby potatoes fried to a golden crust and coated in a tangy and sweet honey mustard sauce. This easy and flavorful recipe is perfect for adding a zesty twist to your meal.

Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes (or potatoes cut into 1.5 inch cubes)

Cooking Fat

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or butter)

Honey Mustard Sauce

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons grainy mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook Potatoes: Place the baby potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil, then cook the potatoes until they are just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly to prepare them for frying.
  2. Fry Potatoes: Heat the olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the drained potatoes to the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until they develop a golden brown crust, approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Make Honey Mustard Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the honey, dijon mustard, grainy mustard, apple cider vinegar, chopped garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the fried potatoes in the skillet. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly, and cook together for an additional 2 to 3 minutes to meld the flavors before serving.

Notes

  • Boiling the potatoes before frying ensures they cook evenly and develop a soft interior.
  • If baby potatoes are not available, regular potatoes cut into 1.5 inch cubes work well.
  • Use olive oil for a healthier option or butter for a richer flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of honey and mustard to suit your taste preference for sweetness or tanginess.
  • Add fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for an aromatic touch.
