skillet russet & sweet potato hash with small bowl of arugula pesto on the side

skillet russet & sweet potato hash with arugula pesto

This skillet russet & sweet potato hash with arugula pesto is two recipes in one – both of which are tasty on their own, and even better together! It makes a colorful and hearty brunch side dish, but can be served anytime you wish, of course. Pair it with a protein pick, like plant-based sausage or eggs, and it becomes a truly satisfying meal.

  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 large (about 9 ounces each) sweet potatoes, ends trimmed, scrubbed and cubed (about 3/4-inches)
  • 1 large (about 8 ounces) russet potato, scrubbed and cubed (about 3/4-inches)
  • 1 or 2 red bell peppers, large diced
  • 3/4 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 2 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced, green and white parts separated
  • 1/2 cup Plant-Based Arugula Pesto (see below) or pesto of choice

Instructions

  1. In a wok or extra-large, deep stick-resistant skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the sweet and russet potatoes and cook while stirring occasionally until the potatoes are lightly caramelized (browned), about 8 minutes. Add the bell pepper and cook while stirring until the potatoes are just fork tender and all veggies are well caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the salt, cayenne, garlic, and white part is the scallions and cook while stirring until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Adjust seasoning.
  3. Transfer to a serving platter or bowl, sprinkle with the green part of the scallions, dollop with the arugula pesto, and serve.
