Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Spam (original or low sodium)
- 2 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and dice them into small 1/2-inch cubes. Parboil them in a pot of salted boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Dice the Spam, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion into small, uniform pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced Spam and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp. Remove the Spam from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the parboiled potatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on the edges.
Add the diced onion and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the diced red and green bell peppers, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
Return the cooked Spam to the skillet and toss everything together. Cook for 1-2 additional minutes to ensure all the flavors are combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Spam and Vegetable Hash!
