Best Skillet Corn And Potato Toss Recipes

POTATO AND CORN SKILLET HASH

Steps:

• Spread the potatoes in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Add 2 cups water, the vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook, stirring halfway through, until the water evaporates and the potatoes are softened, about 20 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium high and add the olive oil. Cook, without stirring, until the potatoes are very browned on the bottom, 5 to 10 minutes. Using a firm metal spatula, scrape up the potatoes from the bottom of the skillet. Continue to cook, stirring and scraping often, until the potatoes are a rich golden brown and crisp all over, 20 to 30 more minutes. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons olive oil as needed if the potatoes are too dry. Remove to a plate.
• Add the corn to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Return the potatoes to the skillet, stir well and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and stir in about half the herbs. Top with the remaining herbs.

STEAK, CORN AND POTATOES WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large nonstick skillet; cover with water and season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, blot dry with paper towels and wipe out the skillet.
• Meanwhile, combine the butter, grated garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon zest and a big pinch of salt in a food processor. Pulse until smooth; set aside.
• Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the steak and cook until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
• While the steak cooks, heat the reserved nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and the potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are browned around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the corn, minced garlic and a pinch of salt; cook, undisturbed, until the corn is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the scallions and cook, tossing, until combined. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the lemon juice.
• Divide the vegetables among plates. Slice the steak and add to the plates; top with the garlic butter.
