Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  3. Combine cubed red potatoes and chopped yellow onions in a large bowl. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, then sprinkle with Lawry’s seasoned salt and black pepper; toss to coat everything evenly.
  4. Spread the potato and onion mixture on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 60 to 75 minutes, turning halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  5. Whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, paprika, and black pepper in a medium bowl for the dressing.
  6. Combine the cooled roasted mixture with the dressing in a large bowl. Gently fold everything together, ensuring the flavors meld without breaking the potatoes.
  7. Garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.
