Ingredients

• 12 oz Spam (original or low sodium)
• 2 medium Russet potatoes
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Green bell pepper
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 2 large Garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the russet potatoes and dice them into small 1/2-inch cubes. Parboil them in a pot of salted boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Dice the Spam, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion into small, uniform pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced Spam and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp. Remove the Spam from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the parboiled potatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on the edges.

Step 5

Add the diced onion and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 6

Add the diced red and green bell peppers, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.

Step 7

Return the cooked Spam to the skillet and toss everything together. Cook for 1-2 additional minutes to ensure all the flavors are combined.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Spam and Vegetable Hash!
