• 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
• 8 oz gluten-free chorizo sausage, casings removed Shop
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika Shop
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional) Shop
• salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped, for garnish
• eggs, fried or poached, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. 1 In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced Yukon Gold potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Season them with salt and pepper.
2. 2 Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet. Add the gluten-free chorizo sausage to the empty side, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook the chorizo until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes, rendering its flavorful fat.
3. 3 Add the chopped yellow onion and red bell pepper to the skillet with the chorizo and potatoes. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until they begin to soften and the onion becomes translucent. Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using), cooking for another minute until fragrant.
4. 4 Stir everything together in the skillet to combine all the flavors. Continue to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the potatoes to crisp up further and the flavors to meld beautifully. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
5. 5 Serve the chorizo and potato hash hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley. For an extra decadent meal, top each serving with a fried or poached egg.

Tips & Notes

• Mexican-style raw chorizo is often seasoned with blends that can contain gluten. Choose one labeled gluten-free.
• Leave the potatoes undisturbed for a few minutes at a time so they form a golden crust.
• Chorizo releases plenty of fat. Spoon off some if the hash looks greasy before adding the vegetables.
