Ingredients

• 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Red onion
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
• 0.5 cup Black olives
• 1 large Lemon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut them into 1/2-inch cubes.

Step 2

Finely chop the red onion and red bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Let them cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until they start to become golden.

Step 5

Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, chopped onion, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 8 minutes, stirring frequently until the onions are translucent.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic and rosemary and cook for 2 more minutes until fragrant.

Step 7

Roughly chop the black olives and add them to the skillet. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the vegetables, reserving a little for garnish if desired.

Step 8

Season with salt and black pepper. Mix everything well to combine, and cook for another 5 minutes until everything is evenly browned and crispy.

Step 9

Chop the parsley and sprinkle over the homefries before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately, garnished with additional lemon juice if desired.
