Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 1 pound) Sweet potatoes
- 6 slices Canadian bacon
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and chop them into 1/2-inch cubes. Set aside.
Dice the Canadian bacon into small bite-sized pieces. Peel and finely chop the onion. Dice the red bell pepper, and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced Canadian bacon and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Remove the bacon and set it aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sweet potato cubes and spread them out evenly. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the edges are golden brown and the sweet potatoes begin to soften.
Add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir to combine and sauté for another 4-5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika over the hash. Return the cooked Canadian bacon to the skillet and stir everything together.
Lower the heat to medium-low. Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, to ensure the flavors meld together and the sweet potatoes are fully cooked through.
Remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy!
