Dice 2 red potatoes into small cubes.

Add a generous amount of salt to a pot of water with the cubed potatoes and bring to a boil.

Cook the potatoes for about 15 minutes until fork-tender, making sure not to overcook them to avoid sogginess.

In a skillet, brown the spicy breakfast sausage until cooked through, breaking it into chunks.

Add diced yellow onion to the skillet with a sprinkle of salt to help sweat it down, cooking until browned.

Remove the sausage and onion mixture from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and a drizzle of olive oil, then add the boiled potatoes.

Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a generous amount of paprika, tossing to coat.

Spread the potatoes into an even layer and allow them to cook until crispy, flipping occasionally.

Return the sausage and onion mixture to the skillet, stirring to combine with the potatoes, and add more paprika for color and flavor.

Continue to cook until everything is nicely browned and crispy, then serve.
