Sweet Potato Hash - The Neelys recipe



Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed into 1-inch cubes
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/4 cup green onions
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Add the potatoes to a large saucepan of salted boiling water and simmer until tender. Drain and dry completely with paper towels.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, pepper and garlic, and saute until tender and lightly golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove to a bowl.
Add the remaining 4 tablespoons oil to the skillet, and then add the drained and dried sweet potatoes. Cook in a single layer, stirring occasionally, on medium heat until they are tender, about 6 minutes. Increase the heat to high and cook, without stirring, until the potatoes are golden and crisp, about 2 more minutes. Sprinkle with the smoked paprika and gently stir in the onion mixture and parsley.
