Print Recipe

A hearty and easy-to-make dish featuring crispy potatoes topped with tender corned beef and melted cheese, perfect for casual meals or celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes, washed and cut into thin rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 12 ounces cooked corned beef, shredded or thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack)
  • ½ cup diced green onions
  • ¼ cup sliced pickled jalapeños or banana peppers (optional)
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice the russet potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Toss the slices in a large bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  2. Spread the potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet or skillet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy around the edges. If pan-frying, heat oil over medium-high heat and cook batches for 3-4 minutes per side until crisp. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  3. While the potatoes cook, gently melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded corned beef and warm for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Once potatoes are crispy, spread them out on an oven-safe platter or keep them on the baking sheet. Evenly distribute the warm corned beef on top, then sprinkle with shredded cheese. Pop back into the oven for 5-7 minutes or until cheese melts and bubbles.
  5. Remove from oven and garnish with diced green onions, pickled jalapeños, dollops of sour cream, and fresh parsley or chives.
  6. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

For crispier potatoes, slice evenly and pat dry before cooking. Warm corned beef gently to keep it tender. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure crispness. Broil for 1-2 minutes if potatoes need extra crisping. Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in oven to maintain texture.
