  • 1 pound Yukon gold or russet potatoes, scrubbed and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large carrots, thinly sliced

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a 10-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet cook potatoes in hot oil over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add carrots; cook for 5 minutes, until potatoes and carrots are tender and lightly browned, turning occasionally.
