Ingredients

• 3 medium Russet potatoes
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Green bell pepper
• 1 medium Onion
• 1 as needed Olive oil spray
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the potatoes. Dice them into 1/2-inch cubes and place the cubes in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning.

Step 2

Dice the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion into similarly sized 1/2-inch pieces and set them aside.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 4

Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray the skillet lightly with olive oil spray.

Step 5

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes begin to crisp and turn golden brown.

Step 6

Spray the skillet with olive oil spray again if needed, then add the diced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the skillet contents. Stir well to distribute the seasonings.

Step 8

Cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the vegetables are softened but still brightly colored.

Step 9

Check for seasoning and adjust salt and pepper if needed. Remove from heat.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and serve warm as a side dish.
