Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch or 3 mm thick)
- 8 ounces corned beef, shredded or chopped
- 1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
- 3 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to avoid sticking.
- Slice the potatoes thinly (about 1/8 inch or 3 mm thick). Rinse the slices in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry thoroughly with clean kitchen towels.
- Toss the potato slices in a large bowl with melted butter, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until each slice is coated.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding; use two batches if necessary.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then carefully flip the potato slices. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and evenly scatter shredded corned beef over the crispy potatoes. Top with Swiss cheese and green onions.
- Return to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven, dollop sour cream over the top, garnish with extra green onions if desired, and serve immediately while the potatoes are still crispy.
Notes
Rinse and dry potato slices thoroughly to ensure crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to prevent steaming. Flip potatoes halfway through baking for even crisping. Use parchment paper for easier cleanup. Leftovers can be reheated in a 375°F oven for 10 minutes to restore crispness. For dairy-free or vegetarian options, substitute ingredients as suggested.
