Number Of Ingredients 14

3 lb russet potatoes, peeled,cubed & washed
1 medium red onion, chopped
1 large white or spanish onion chopped
1 large red bell pepper, cut into medium chunks
1 medium green pepper, cut into medium chunks
6 clove garlic chopped
1 tsp coarse black pepper
1 Tbsp dried chopped chive, (can use fresh if available)
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4 c butter
2 Tbsp olive or canola oil
1 c feta cheese crumbles or more if desired
1/3 c shredded mozzarella cheese
chopped green onion tops as garnish if desired

Steps:

  • 1. Start with a large non stick skillet, I used a 16 inch size.
  • 2. Add 1/4 cup of butter plus 2 tablespoons of olive or canola oil. Turn fire to medium high heat.
  • 3. Peel wash & cube potatoes.
  • 4. Chop onions and add potatoes, chive & onions to skillet. If using fresh chive do use more than a tablespoon full.
  • 5. Season Potatoes with spices, more if you prefer, I tend to use less salt because the feta tend to be a bit salty, but use your own judgement.
  • 6. Add both chopped peppers and garlic to skillet. May need to add a small amount of water to prevent potatoes from sticking.
  • 7. Stir potato mixture to blend together. Continue to cook over medium high heat, till potatoes and peppers are tender about 15 to 18 minutes or so.
  • 8. Add the crumbled Feta and shredded mozzarella if using and stir to blend with the potatoes. Cover with lid and allow cheeses to melt slightly. Add your favorite Entree.
  • 9. Add your favorite Entree.
  • 10. Serve and enjoy your dinner.
