- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the potatoes and spread them out into an even layer, and cook undisturbed for 4-6 minutes until deeply golden brown on the bottom.
- Flip the potatoes and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until browned and crisp on all sides and soft on the inside.
- Add the butter, onion, Cajun seasoning, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and pepper, and stir gently to coat.
