Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Yellow potatoes
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Onion
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and dice them into 1-inch cubes. You may peel them if you prefer, but the skin adds extra nutrients.
Core and slice the red and green bell peppers into thin strips. Set aside.
Peel and slice the onion thinly.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown on the outside.
Pour in the water to the skillet, cover with a lid, and let the potatoes steam for an additional 5 minutes until they are cooked through and tender.
Remove the lid, add the sliced onion, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, around 3 minutes.
Add the red and green bell peppers, stirring for 2-3 minutes until they soften slightly but still retain some crunch.
Sprinkle the minced garlic over the mixture and stir for another minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh rosemary, thyme, and black pepper, stirring well to combine all the flavors.
Finally, squeeze the lemon juice over the stir fry, give it one last stir, and remove from heat.
Serve the potato stir fry warm as a side dish or a light main course. Enjoy your flavorful, low-sodium dish!
