1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

2

Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

3

Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.

4

Stir in the diced ham and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes to allow it to warm through.

5

Add the minced garlic, Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to evenly coat the ingredients with the spices.

6

Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.

7

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the hash with sliced green onions and chopped parsley, if using.

8

Serve hot and enjoy your Cajun Ham Hash on its own or with a fried egg on top for an extra treat.
