Peel and thinly slice the potatoes. De-seed and slice the red bell pepper into strips. Peel and slice the onion thinly.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, red bell pepper, and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the vegetables are lightly browned.
While the vegetables are cooking, crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add black pepper and garlic powder, then beat until well combined.
Once the vegetables are cooked, remove from heat and let them cool slightly. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Add the cooled vegetables to the beaten eggs and mix gently to combine.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly.
Cook on the stovetop for 5 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10 more minutes until the tortilla is fully set and has a lightly golden top.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.
Slice into wedges and serve warm.
