Ingredients
- 3 cups potatoes, diced
- 1 cup smoked chicken, shredded
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash and dice the potatoes into small, uniform cubes approximately 1/2 inch in size to ensure even cooking.
- Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and appears slightly rippled.
- Add chopped onions to the skillet and sauté until they become translucent and start to develop a light golden color, which takes about 3-4 minutes.
- Add diced potatoes to the skillet, spreading them in a single layer to maximize surface contact for crispy browning.
- Season the potatoes and onions with salt and pepper, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
- Cook the potatoes for approximately 15-20 minutes, turning them periodically to create a crispy, golden-brown exterior.
- Once potatoes are almost fully cooked and crispy, add the shredded smoked chicken to the skillet, gently mixing to distribute evenly.
- Continue cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes to heat the chicken and allow flavors to meld together.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Remove from heat and serve hot, optionally garnishing with fresh herbs like chopped parsley or chives.
Tips
- To ensure the perfect Potato and Smoked Chicken Hash, follow these expert tips:* Use high-quality smoked chicken for an intense, smoky flavor. * Don't overcrowd the skillet, as this can prevent the potatoes from browning evenly. Cook in batches if necessary. * Be patient and don't rush the cooking process. The longer you cook the potatoes, the crisper they'll become. * Experiment with different seasonings, such as paprika or garlic powder, to add an extra layer of flavor. * Serve with a fried egg or toast for a satisfying breakfast or brunch.
