Cheesy Potato Skillet Recipe – Page 2

Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and dice the potatoes into small, evenly-sized pieces. This ensures they cook evenly and become tender.
Chop the Vegetables: Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and dice the bell peppers.

Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Cook the Onions and Peppers: Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the Potatoes: Add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Season with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and dried thyme. Stir to combine.
Cover and Cook: Reduce the heat to medium, cover the skillet, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and golden brown. If the potatoes start to stick, add a splash of water or broth to the skillet.

Add the Cheese: Once the potatoes are tender and golden, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the potatoes. Cover the skillet again and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Add the Bacon (Optional): If using bacon, sprinkle the cooked and crumbled bacon over the melted cheese.

Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and freshness.
Enjoy: Serve the cheesy potato skillet hot, directly from the skillet. This dish pairs well with eggs, grilled meats, or as a standalone meal.

Even Dice: Ensure the potatoes are diced into small, even pieces for consistent cooking.
Stir Occasionally: Stir the potatoes occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
Melt the Cheese: Covering the skillet helps melt the cheese evenly and creates a deliciously gooey topping.
