Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 12 oz Russet Potato
  • ⅓ Cup Diced Red Onion
  • ⅓ Cup Diced Green Bell Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Coarse Black Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder

Instructions
 

  • Wash and cut the russet potato into ¾″ cubes
  • Soak diced potatoes in cool water for at least one hour (optional)
  • While your potatoes are soaking, dice ⅓ cup of red onion and ⅓ cup of green pepper into ½" pieces, set aside.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 F for 5 minutes.
  • Strain the potatoes and blot dry with a paper towel.
  • Toss the potatoes, oil, and seasoning together in a dry bowl.
  • Cook potatoes in the air fryer at 400 F for 20 minutes, flipping every five minutes. After 10 minutes, add your vegetables to the mixture.

Notes

Soaking in water is optional. If you choose to skip it, still be sure to pat any excess moisture from your potatoes before tossing them with the oil and seasoning.
Do not add vegetables at the start of the cooking time, they will overcook and shrivel.
Air fryer cook temps vary depending on your air fryer. Be sure to keep an eye on your home frys to ensure they don't burn.
