How to make Sweet Potato & Black Bean Breakfast Hash
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the 2 diced medium sweet potatoes.
- Cook the sweet potatoes for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender when pierced with a fork and lightly browned on the edges. Remove the cooked sweet potatoes from the skillet and set aside in a bowl.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet over medium heat. Add the 1 diced medium yellow onion and 1 diced large bell pepper.
- Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent and the bell pepper has softened.
- Stir in the 1 can of rinsed and drained black beans, 1/2 cup of frozen corn, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the spices to toast and the flavors to meld. The corn should be heated through.
- Return the cooked sweet potatoes to the skillet with the bean and vegetable mixture. Stir everything together gently to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.
- Continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to ensure all components are hot and well integrated.
