Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes & Seasoning
- 4 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet), diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Protein & Vegetables
- 12 oz Italian sausage, sliced (or preferred variety)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Spicy Tomato Butter
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
Garnish
- Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or cilantro)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the potatoes evenly and to a nice crisp.
- Season Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika until they are thoroughly coated with the seasoning.
- Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Toss them halfway through cooking for even browning, aiming for a golden and crispy texture.
- Cook Sausage: While the potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced sausage and brown for 5-7 minutes until cooked through and slightly crispy.
- Sauté Vegetables: To the skillet with sausage, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Cook together until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant and well combined with the vegetables.
- Combine Roasted Potatoes: Transfer the roasted potatoes into the skillet with the sausage and vegetables. Gently mix everything to evenly combine the ingredients without breaking the potatoes.
- Prepare Spicy Tomato Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add the drained diced tomatoes and red pepper flakes, then simmer the mixture for 3-5 minutes to blend the flavors.
- Dress the Hash: Drizzle the spicy tomato butter over the potato and sausage mixture. Toss lightly to ensure everything is evenly coated with the flavorful sauce.
- Serve & Garnish: Serve the hash hot, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro to add a fresh herbal note to the dish.

- For a gluten-free version, ensure the sausage contains no gluten additives.
