Seriously the easiest dish one could think of.  I have tried numerous ways to make these potatoes for the past 15 years (and I have failed too many times to count). The trick is not timing but the skillet that you are using. A good non-stick skillet and turning the potatoes often is the key. You want a lovely golden crisp. Do not salt until 30 seconds before the potatoes are ready. This will give you a nice crisp outside and a perfectly cooked potato.

Dice or slice the potatoes. In a 10-inch skillet heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and optional butter if using, over medium low heat. Brown the potatoes for 10-15 minutes stirring or flipping often. Sprinkle with salt right before taking off heat. Sprinkle with optional parsley or serve immediately.
