Ingredients

• 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parsley

Directions

Step 1

Start by washing and scrubbing the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for extra fiber and nutrients. Dice the potatoes into small, uniform cubes, about 1/2 inch in size.

Step 2

Deseed and finely chop the red and green bell peppers. Peel and dice the yellow onion.

Step 3

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the tablespoon of olive oil. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.

Step 4

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid sticking.

Step 5

Once the potatoes begin to soften and turn golden, add the chopped onions and peppers to the skillet.

Step 6

Season the mixture with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Continue to cook, uncovered, for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the potatoes have a crispy exterior.

Step 8

If needed, adjust the seasoning to taste. Finally, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy it on its own for a nutritious and satisfying meal.
