This Honey Mustard Skillet Potatoes recipe features tender baby potatoes cooked to golden perfection and coated in a tangy, sweet, and savory honey mustard sauce. A perfect side dish with vibrant flavors and a crisp texture.

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

  • You can substitute baby potatoes with regular potatoes cut into uniform 1.5 inch cubes for even cooking.
  • Use butter instead of olive oil for a richer flavor and slight crispness.
  • Adjust the honey amount to your preferred sweetness level.
  • Ensure potatoes are well-drained before frying to get a crisp crust.
  • Add fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for extra aroma and color.
  • This dish pairs well with grilled meats or as a hearty vegetarian side.
