Crisp Skillet Potatoes
These potatoes are so satisfying you could serve them as a meatless meal, with bread and salad on the side.
Prep Time:
Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 baking potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 3 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 3 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon refrigerated minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
Combine potatoes, salt and enough water to cover in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil. Cook, covered, until potatoes are tender, about 5 to 7 minutes, then drain.
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Sauté bell pepper and celery in hot oil, stirring frequently, just until tender, about 2 minutes.
Add mushrooms, garlic and potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Add paprika, salt and black pepper and mix well. Cook, stirring frequently, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
Secret Tip
To cube potatoes quickly, cut the potatoes into quarters or sixths lengthwise. Lay the sticks on a cutting board, side by side, and cut them into cubes.
