To prepare Potatoes O'Brien, heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the frozen contents of the package to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, and the peppers are softened. For crispier potatoes, you can cook them a bit longer. Ensure the product is heated through before serving.
