Crispy Breakfast Potatoes Recipe

🕒 Prep Time: 10 min | Cook Time: 25–30 min | Serves: 3–4


Ingredients:

  • 3–4 medium potatoes (Yukon gold or russet work well)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 small bell pepper, diced (any color)
  • 2–3 tbsp oil (vegetable, olive, or avocado oil)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika (smoked or sweet)
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
  • Optional: pinch of chili flakes or cayenne for heat
  • Fresh parsley or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Potatoes:
    • Wash and dice the potatoes into small cubes (about ½ inch).
    • Optionally, parboil them for 5 minutes or microwave with a splash of water for 3–4 minutes. This helps them cook faster and become fluffier inside.
  2. Heat the Pan:
    • In a large skillet (preferably non-stick or cast iron), heat oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook Potatoes:
    • Add the potatoes in a single layer. Don’t stir too often—let them brown on each side.
    • After 10–12 minutes, add chopped onion and bell pepper. Stir occasionally.
  4. Season:
    • Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chili flakes or cayenne if using.
    • Stir well and continue cooking until potatoes are crispy and golden brown (total 20–25 minutes).
  5. Finish:
    • Turn off the heat and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
    • Serve hot with eggs, toast, or avocado.

🔄 Variations:

  • Add cheese in the last few minutes for cheesy potatoes.
  • Toss in cooked bacon or sausage bits.
  • Try seasoning with cajun spice or Italian herbs for a twist.
