A tasty and cosy recipe that’s ideal for breakfast, lunch, or even a quick supper is cheesy potato skillet. It is prepared using potatoes, cheese, and often an assortment of herbs and veggies. To help you get started, consider this easy recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold), peeled and diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choice)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper (any color), diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2-3 green onions, chopped (for garnish, optional)
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

  1. Warm up the pan: Place a large pan over medium heat with the olive oil.
    Cook the Potatoes: Fill the pan with cubed potatoes. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, or until they begin to turn brown and soften. You may put a lid on the skillet and cook them for a few minutes if you’d like.
  2. Add Vegetables: Fill the pan with the chopped onion and bell pepper. Simmer the veggies for a further five minutes, or until they are tender.
  3. Season and Add Garlic: Add the paprika, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and chopped garlic. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute or until fragrant.
  4. Cheese Addition: Evenly distribute the grated cheese throughout the potato mixture. After turning down the heat to low and covering the pan, wait a few minutes for the cheese to melt and bubble.
  5. Serve and garnish: Take the skillet off of the hob. If desired, garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro or parsley. Warm up the food.
  6. Advice: You may add fried bacon pieces, crumbled sausage or any other desired toppings for additional flavour.
    Spread out the potatoes in the pan and let them to rest without stirring for a few minutes to form a crispy coating if you want a crispier texture.
  7. Savour your potato skillet with cheese! It tastes well served by itself or as a substantial dinner when combined with eggs or a side salad.
