Best Sbarro Potatoes Recipes

MOJO POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oil to 375°F in a deep fryer or large pot.
• Mix the flour, salt, pepper, garlic salt, and celery salt in a shallow dish.
• Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch slices.
• Dip the potato slices into the beaten egg and then into the flour mixture.
• Deep fry the breaded potatoes in the hot oil until golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Serve with dressing, dipping sauce, or sour cream.

PERFECTLY ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place a rack in the lowest position in your oven and preheat to 425°F. Halve potatoes lengthwise.
• Arrange potatoes, cut side down, on a large rimmed baking sheet, spacing evenly. Pour in 1 1/2 to 2 cups water-enough to cover the surface in a thin layer but not so much that it spills the second you move the sheet.
• Cover baking sheet with a double layer of foil, crimping sides very tightly to seal well. This will trap in steam and prevent water from sloshing out if you accidentally jostle the sheet.
• Bake until a fork or a skewer slides easily through the potatoes, 25 to 30 minutes. The foil will be puffed; pierce it with the fork or skewer and poke around for a couple of potatoes to test.
• Let potatos cool, still covered, 5 minutes. Use tongs to peel back foil about 1 inch at on corner. Carefully tip sheet and pour off water (its job is done). Crank up oven to 500°F or as high as it goes.
• Remove foil. Drizzle olive oil over potatoes. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Let potatoes cool to the point that you can handle them, then toss to coat.
• Arrange potatoes cut side down and roast, uncovered, until skins are golden, cut sides are deeply browned and crisp, and you can see the edges frying and sizzling in the oil on the sheet, 20-25 minutes.
• Let potatoes cool for a minute or two, then use a spatula to unstick them from the baking sheet. Serve them exactly as they are because these potatoes need absolutely nothing else.

MOJO FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Whisk flour, paprika, salt, black pepper, chili powder, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Whisk egg with milk together in a separate bowl. Dip potato wedges in the egg mixture, then dredge in the seasoned flour. Arrange coated potato wedges on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle wedges with vegetable oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the coating is browned and the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

SWEET POTATO HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss sweet potatoes with oil and 1/4 teaspoon paprika; season with salt and pepper. Roast, rotating sheet and flipping potatoes halfway through, until browned, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat butter on medium-high. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft and golden, about 10 minutes.
• Add roasted sweet potatoes to skillet with vegetables. Toss with remaining 1/4 teaspoon paprika, then strip the leaves from thyme sprigs into skillet; stir to combine. Check seasoning; serve immediately.

SBARRO CHICKEN VESUVIO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, heat oil until hot and then saute garlic. When garlic is golden brown, remove from the pan and set aside. In the hot oil, brown the chicken pieces and then remove chicken to paper towels. Brown potatoes in same oil and drain them as well.
• Pour off all but 1/8 cup oil from pan. Reduce heat to low and add the Marsala wine, scraping up any brown bits.
• Place chicken and potatoes in roasting pan along with sliced carrots. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper, Italian seasonings and wine/oil mixture.
• Cover and bake 1 hour. After 1/2 hour, remove top and cook uncovered, basting often. If liquid seems to be evaporating, add water to it.

CHICKEN VESUVIO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss the potato wedges with 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the potatoes out in an even layer. (It's OK if some overlap). Bake, tossing gently once halfway through cooking, until the edges begin to brown, and the potatoes can be pierced with a fork but are still quite firm, about 30 minutes. (They'll finish cooking with the chicken.)
• While potatoes roast, prepare the chicken: Season the chicken with salt, pepper and the remaining 1 teaspoon oregano. In a large 12-inch skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high until it shimmers. Working in batches if necessary, cook the chicken, skin-side down, until it is golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, add the butter and garlic to the skillet and cook until the butter is melted and the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and wine to the skillet, bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes. Add the peas. Pour the mixture evenly over the potatoes, then gently stir to combine. Place chicken on top of the cooked potato mixture, skin-side up. Drizzle any reserved chicken juices on top.
• Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler function, and broil until the chicken skin is golden brown and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately, with plenty of the pan juices spooned over the chicken and potatoes, and crusty bread on the side.
