Cottage Fried Potatoes

Cottage Fried Potatoes
3 T. butter
1 pound potatoes, scrubbed, thinly sliced, with peel ON
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp black pepper
1 small onion, thinly sliced & separated

*Melt butter in a large skillet.
*Layer potatoes in skillet, seasoning with spices. 
*Cook, covered over medium heat for about 8 minutes.
*Add onion rings, and cook uncovered for 8 to 10 minutes, turning frequently until potatoes are browned and tender. 

I made these with Sweet and Spicy Steak & Onions and it was wonderful!  I had a hard time with portion control at dinner that night! 

NOTE:  I use Yukon Gold potatoes.  My cousin mentioned that they have a more buttery texture, and I tried them on a whim one day, and I am now a convert.  This recipe uses about 4 or 5 medium Yukon Golds, or 3 medium Russets.
