Sweet Potato and Sausage Hash
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ¼ " cubes
- ½ Tbsp olive oil
- 2 links uncooked chicken sausage (chicken-apple works nicely)
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
- Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water.
- Bring to a boil and cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
- Heat the oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Cut open the sausage casing and squeeze the meat directly into the pan, discarding the casing.
- Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, until the meat is cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same pan, add the reserved sweet potatoes, the onion, and red pepper.
- Cook until the potatoes and vegetables are browned, about 7 minutes.
- Return the sausage to the pan, season with the cayenne and salt and pepper, and stir to mix.
- Divide the hash among four plates or bowls. Top each serving with a fried egg and Tabasco.
