Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
• 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 stalks, sliced Green onions
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Place the cubed potatoes in a pot of salted water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until just fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 3

Add the partially cooked potatoes to the skillet. Spread them out evenly and let them cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes to develop a golden crust on one side.

Step 4

Sprinkle the smoked paprika, garlic powder, Creole seasoning, salt, and black pepper evenly over the potatoes. Stir well to evenly distribute the seasonings. Continue cooking for another 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and crispy on all sides.

Step 5

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sliced green onions and chopped parsley for a fresh pop of flavor.

Step 6

Serve the Creole Smokey Breakfast Potatoes hot as a side dish or as a hearty breakfast option with eggs or sausage.
