Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) Yukon Gold or red potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 Tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz (225 g) gluten-free sausage (crumbled), diced ham, or plant-based sausage
- 2 cups packed baby spinach or kale
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: chopped fresh parsley or cilantro, sliced green onions, hot sauce, fried or poached eggs
Instructions
- Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp, about 12–15 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add remaining 1 Tbsp oil to skillet. Sauté onion and bell pepper until softened, about 4 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, smoked paprika, and cumin; cook 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add sausage (or ham/plant-based protein) and return potatoes to skillet; stir well to combine. Cook 2–3 minutes to heat through.
- Stir in spinach (or kale); cook until wilted, 1–2 minutes.
- Taste and season with additional salt, pepper, or smoked paprika as desired.
- Serve hot, topped with fresh parsley or cilantro, green onions, and eggs or hot sauce if using.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, par-cook potatoes by boiling 5 minutes, draining, and then pan-frying.
- Make it vegetarian by using gluten-free plant-based sausage or omit meat entirely and add beans.
- Leftovers refrigerate up to 3 days; reheat in a skillet or oven to preserve crisp texture.
- Customize with other seasonal veggies like zucchini, mushrooms, or sweet potatoes.
