Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 4 medium (diced into small cubes) yellow potato
- 4 links (casings removed) sweet Italian sausage
- 1 medium (diced) yellow onion
- 1 (diced) red bell pepper
- 1 (diced) green bell pepper
- 3 (minced) garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 cup (halved) grape tomatoes
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 0.5 cups (grated) parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons (or to taste) black pepper
- 4 (optional, for serving) eggs
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, add the sweet Italian sausage (with casings removed). Break it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon and cook for 5-7 minutes until fully browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
Add the diced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the halved grape tomatoes to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Return the crispy potatoes and cooked sausage to the skillet, then stir in the fresh spinach. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the mixture and stir until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
If desired, fry or poach eggs separately and serve them on top of the hash.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy!
