Make your next lazy morning sizzlin’ with this super flavorful, simple potato hash with bell peppers and onions!
Unlike a lot of people I know, I’m a morning person. Don’t go getting me up before 7am, but anytime after and I’ll usually feel brighter than the sunshine itself! This also means, of course, I am NO nightowl. Go ahead and shake your moneymaker at the club ‘til dawn… I’ll be tucked up in bed asleep before Jeopardy. Oh, hey little youngster, can I offer you a hand knitted blanket or a Werther’s caramel?
Being a morning person means I need my fuel, and nothing does the trick like an egg, fruit and a little starch. Okay, who are we kidding… a lotta starch some mornings. Some mornings. If I had it my way, every morning. But a girl’s still gotta rock a bikini while it’s blazing hot down South! Can I get an amen?
Once swimsuit season’s a thing of the past and sweaters are here to stay for a few months, I’ll indulge a little more (and easily be able to hide the evidence). That means more of this crisp, flavorful deliciousness in a pan for long breakfasts and lazy brunches. Besides, who says you can’t have onions and garlic before lunchtime? Just don’t go kissin’ around!

Potato Hash with Bell Peppers and Onions
Yield: Serves 5-6
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
4 large or 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into ½” cubes
1 onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 tsp. fresh parsley, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat the oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes, toss to coat with oil, and place a lid on the pan. Allow the potatoes to cook covered for 10 minutes.
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium high. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and vegetables turn golden brown.
Add the parsley and garlic; cook for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve immediately.
Enjoy!

I am a morning person too. Even without kids I would like to be up by seven. This hash looks great. I have had a note to myself to try sweet potato hash one of these days so thanks for the sweet reminder! :)

Georgia! I’m a total morning person too! I usually wake up at 7 on the weekends. 5am during the week. I know, I am crazy! It’s so nice ot accomplish a lot before the rest of the world wakes up. I love it! This potato hash would instantly get me out of bed earlier than usual too!!
Emily @ Back to the Cutting Board says
I am not a morning person (I wish I was!) but this recipe would definitely make getting up early worth it. Either that or I’ll just make it for lunch instead. :)

Is that some sort of cheese, like Parmesan I see sprinkled over the finished product? Just want to make an exact replica. Thanks, can’t wait to eat this!
Georgia | The Comfort of Cooking says
Oops, thought I already added that in there. Yes, it’s Parmesan and the recipe has been updated. Thanks!
Andrea says
Made this for dinner with some eggs and kale and it was DELICIOUS! Such a simple way to make potatoes. Will definitely be making again! Super breakfast food :)

I make this all the time but use season salt and garlic salt and I don’t use bell peppers or fresh Parmesan cheese or parsley
Kylie says
This was delish!
Pam says
Made this now. it was great, added a bit of chorizo to it. I actually want to have a second helping. Saving it for dinner. Thanks
Nicole says
Loved this. It was easy to make and came together beautifully. This recipe is a keeper. Thanks for sharing!
Amy says
This looked so amazing, and I’m a huge fan of savory breakfasts so I made it Sunday night for a week full of yummy breakfasts.
I have a question – I had a terrible time keeping the potatoes from burning. I deglazed the pan with a bit of water, but I didn’t want my potatoes to turn mushy. Do I have my pan up too high?
Thanks for any advice!!

I’m really not sure what might have gone wrong, but as you said, possibly your heat was too high.
Hollie says
Made this dish for breakfast this morning and delighted with the results! Easy to follow recipe and great outcome. Will be making again, it was a hit with my fella too!
Queenbebe says
Excellent meal, I tweeked a bit – i added sausage, scrambles eggs, and extra cheese, mozzarella, provalone & cheddar cheese. It was absolutely incredible. This is a recipe that I will use time and time again. So good we took naps after enjoying this meal on a Saturday morning. I will use this recipe for a dinner side w/o the eggs, I’m sure it would be great with grilled chicken.
