Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into 1-inch chunks.
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potato chunks and parboil for 5-7 minutes, until they are slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray. Add the olive oil to the skillet.
Add the parboiled potatoes to the skillet and spread them into an even layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 5 minutes to develop a golden crust.
Stir the potatoes gently, then add the diced ham to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ham is slightly crispy and the potatoes are golden brown on all sides.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes and ham. Toss gently to coat evenly in the seasoning.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the fresh parsley over the mixture.
Serve hot as a main dish or a side, and enjoy your WW-friendly savory potato and ham chunks!
