Ingredients

• 1.5 cups ham, diced
• 2 medium potatoes, diced
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 medium bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash, peel (if desired), and dice the potatoes into small, evenly-sized cubes to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to become golden and crispy.

Step 3

Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and stir in the chopped onion and diced bell pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft.

Step 4

Push the potatoes and vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the diced ham to the empty side and cook for 3 minutes until lightly browned.

Step 5

Stir the contents of the skillet together and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Season the mixture with paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to evenly coat all ingredients with the spices.

Step 7

Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are fully cooked and the flavors are well combined.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired, for a fresh garnish.

Step 9

Serve hot straight from the skillet and enjoy your delicious Ham Skillet!
