To prepare, simply heat a skillet with a bit of oil or butter over medium-high heat. Add the frozen Potatoes O'Brien directly to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, and the vegetables are softened. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes. For a crispier texture, ensure the skillet is hot and avoid overcrowding it. You can add extra seasonings or a touch of cheese towards the end of cooking if desired.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh diced potatoes, this product is flash-frozen, which helps to lock in flavor and texture. The pre-mixed peppers and onions ensure a consistent ratio in every serving, saving you the effort of chopping multiple ingredients separately.
