Ingredients for Spicy Hash Browns Homemade

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Red Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Baking Potatoes
  • Cooking Spray

How to Make Spicy Hash Browns Homemade

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers.
  3. Add 3 pounds diced potatoes (about 4 medium russet potatoes) to the bowl and toss to thoroughly coat the potatoes with the spice mixture.
  4. Lightly grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil.
  5. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't overcrowded.
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven and the size of your potato dices.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
