Simple seasonings coat these crisp, golden brown potatoes, making them a good accompaniment to scrambled eggs, roasted chicken or lamb chops.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbs. unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. paprika
- 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
- 2 1/2 lb. small new potatoes, unpeeled

Directions
Preheat an oven to 425°F.
