How to Make Sweet Potato Hash
Assemble your ingredients. For exact amounts see the recipe card below.
On your stovetop, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add in the cubed sweet potatoes and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and dry well on paper towels.
In a large skillet, heat 2 Tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, and garlic and sauté for about 4 minutes until soft and slightly browned. Spoon mixture into a bowl and set aside.
In the now empty skillet add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat. Add the sweet potato cubes in one layer and cook until that side has browned then continue turning and cooking them until they have a nice browning to them, be careful not to burn them.

Cook for about 2 minutes until everything has heated and combined together.
Finally, remove from the stovetop, garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
Spice up your Holiday season
Don’t get me wrong, I love all of the classic Holiday dishes that our family brings for Thanksgiving and Christmas, however I also like when new recipes show up on the dining table. This sweet potato hash will definitely be one I am bringing to Thanksgiving this year. We have a large family gathering for Thanksgiving and there are a lot of duplicate dishes that end up showing up. Because of that, I know this dish will be a hit and something different to serve up with all of the classics.
