Equipment
Large Skillet
Plate (for resting cooked vegetables)
Aluminum Foil or Lid
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 Yellow onion, diced
- 1 small Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small Green bell pepper, diced
- 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
- 2 lbs. Yukon Gold Potatoes, diced into ½ inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons Water or chicken broth
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook until they are soft and translucent. Reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic, cooking for 1 minute while stirring constantly. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a plate and cover to keep them warm.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown, stirring several times to ensure even cooking.
- Pour in the water or chicken broth and quickly cover the skillet with aluminum foil or a lid. Cook until the potatoes are tender, stirring several times to prevent over-browning.
