Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 large granny smith apple
- 1.5 cups cooked ham
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 cups parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Dice the onion, mince the garlic, and core and dice the apple into 1/2-inch pieces. Dice the ham if not already diced.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potato cubes and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced apple and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apple begins to soften.
Return the crispy potatoes to the skillet along with the diced ham. Sprinkle with thyme leaves, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir to combine, and cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Sprinkle the skillet with grated Parmesan cheese and cover the skillet. Allow the cheese to melt for 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
