How to Make Jumbo Skillet Potato Pancake

  1. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups shredded potatoes, 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 clove minced garlic, 1 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional). Mix well.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (12-inch) oven-safe skillet over medium heat until butter is melted and foaming.
  3. Spread the potato mixture evenly in the hot skillet using the back of a large spoon. Make it about 1 inch thick.
  4. Cook over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for another 6-7 minutes, or until the potato mixture is set and firm on one side.
  6. Carefully place the skillet in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C). Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the pancake is cooked through and golden brown on top.
  7. Remove from oven. Using two spatulas, carefully slide the pancake onto a serving plate.
  8. Season the top with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  9. Serve immediately. Enjoy hot!
