    Skillet hash browns with sausage and peppers is the perfect dinner for weeknights. This easy and simple dinner comes together in only 30 minutes!

    Skillet Hash Browns with sausage is the perfect choice for breakfast or brunch.

    We all love quick weeknights dinner right? Well, here is a new recipe for you, using delicious ingredients we all have!

    A quick and easy dinner option

    Weeknight dinners don't have to be a pain and take out or delivery isn't always the answer. Even if all we have on hand is a few common ingredients and a skillet, we can always make a delicious dinner at home.

    Skillet Hash Browns topped with avocados for breakfast or brunch.

    I used Simply Potatoes® Shredded Hash Browns to make this dinner and loved how quick and easy it was to put a full dinner together!

    Skillet Hash Browns made with shredded hash browns.

    Instructions

    A heavy bottom skillet is your best option for making hash browns on the stove. I suggest using a cast iron skillet. Place the skillet on the stove over medium heat and pour 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil into the skillet. Once the olive oil is hot and shimmery, add the hash browns into the pan and spread them using a spatula. Cook for 5-6 minutes over medium, medium-low heat. Cut the hash browns into smaller pieces using the spatula and flip. Cook the other side for 5-6 minutes until fully cooked.

    For these skillet hash browns, I added the cooked hash browns to the sausage and peppers to turn it into a full dinner. You can serve this dish with a side salad. It's ready in only 30 minutes!

    Skillet Hash Browns is great for a weekend brunch.

    Notes and tips:

    • Olive oil is great for hash browns. If you don't have olive oil, butter, vegetable or coconut oil would work, too.
    • You can serve this dinner entrée with fixings such as lettuce, sour cream, guacamole and salsa although this dish is a full dinner on its own.
    • You can easily add eggs to this recipe.  Simply mix the hash browns with sausage and pepper, open 4 small wells in the skillet, crack 4 eggs, and place one egg into each well. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes until the yolks are almost cooked.
    • Store the leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
    • For more heat, add some diced jalapenos with the sausage.

      I love the colorful vegetables which give the hash brown a bold look to match its flavor plus the sausage that adds a smoky flavor.

      Yum, we can eat this everyday. In fact, I'm going to make this for breakfast, with more breakfast ingredients, like eggs and breakfast sausages. I'm sure it will be awesome. 🙂
