A hearty and flavorful sausage, pepper, onion, and potato hash that’s perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast or brunch. This skillet-cooked dish combines perfectly browned potatoes with savory turkey sausage and tender sautéed peppers and onions, seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and olive oil.

Ingredients

Meat

  • 1 (14 ounce) package turkey sausage, cut into 1/4 inch rounds

Vegetables

  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 yellow, red, or orange bell pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 small or 2 large potatoes, peeled and diced

Other

  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep the potatoes and heat the skillet: Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes about 1/2 inch in size. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Fry the potatoes: Add the diced potatoes to the hot oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook them undisturbed for a few minutes, then stir occasionally, frying until they turn golden brown and are cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  3. Brown the sausage: In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the turkey sausage rounds and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Sauté the peppers and onions: Using the same skillet, add the diced green and colored bell peppers along with the diced onion. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables soften, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Combine all ingredients: Add the cooked potatoes and browned turkey sausage to the skillet with the sautéed peppers and onions. Stir gently to combine all the flavors thoroughly. Cook together for 1 to 2 more minutes to allow the ingredients to meld and heat through.
  6. Serve hot: Transfer the hash to plates and serve immediately for a warm, comforting meal.

Notes

  • You can use any type of sausage you prefer, such as pork or chicken sausage.
  • For a spicier version, add some chili flakes or diced jalapeños with the peppers.
  • To keep potatoes from sticking, make sure the oil is hot before adding them to the pan.
  • This dish reheats well and can be prepared ahead of time for meal prep.
  • If you want to add greens, stir in some chopped spinach or kale at the end of cooking.
