Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 4 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet), diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Sausage and Vegetables
- 12 oz Italian sausage, sliced (or preferred variety)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Spicy Tomato Butter
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
Garnish
- Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or cilantro)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the potatoes.
- Prepare Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika until they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet and place them in the oven. Roast for 20 minutes, stirring or tossing the potatoes halfway through to ensure they become golden brown and crispy.
- Cook Sausage: While the potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced Italian sausage and cook, turning occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
- Sauté Vegetables: Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet with the sausage. Cook together, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and sauté with the sausage and vegetables for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
- Combine Potatoes and Sausage: Transfer the roasted potatoes from the oven into the skillet. Gently stir to combine all ingredients evenly without breaking the potatoes.
- Make Spicy Tomato Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add the drained diced tomatoes and red pepper flakes. Simmer gently for 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Finish Hash: Drizzle the spicy tomato butter over the potato and sausage mixture in the skillet. Toss lightly to coat all components evenly with the sauce.
- Serve: Serve the hash hot, garnished with fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
Notes
- You can substitute Italian sausage with any sausage variety of your preference, such as chorizo or breakfast sausage.
- Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spiciness of the tomato butter.
- For crispier potatoes, ensure they are spread in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
- This dish works well for breakfast, brunch, or even a comforting dinner option.
- Fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro add a fresh bright note but can be omitted if unavailable.
