Ingredients

• 2 medium Apple
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 2 medium Bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional, for a sweet twist)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the apples, onion, and bell peppers thoroughly.

Step 2

Core and slice the apples into thin wedges, leaving the skin on for added texture and flavor.

Step 3

Peel and slice the onion into thin, even strips.

Step 4

Deseed the bell peppers and slice them into thin strips of similar size to the onions.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter.

Step 6

Once the butter is melted and the oil is shimmering, add the onion slices to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and become translucent.

Step 7

Add the bell peppers to the skillet and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Step 8

Add the apple slices and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and cinnamon (if using). Stir to combine and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the apples are tender but not mushy.

Step 9

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Step 10

Remove from heat and serve warm as a side dish or over a bed of rice or grains for a complete meal.
