What's For Dinner Tonight?

Morning friends! This week I'm featuring a Steak Hash that can be served with scrambled eggs (don't forget to use egg whites). Although this very may well be a breakfast recipe I do believe we'll be having it for dinner tonight. Breakfast for dinner...YUM!


Steak Hash



POINTS® Value: 5
Servings: 6
Preparation Time: 12 min
Cooking Time: 35 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy

Super on its own or served with scrambled eggs. Cut corners by using leftover steak or thick-cut deli-style roast beef.


Ingredients
1 spray(s) olive oil cooking spray
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 cup(s) onion(s), finely chopped
2 medium green pepper(s), chopped
3 cup(s) frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
12 oz cooked lean flank steak, sliced and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch pieces*
1/4 cup(s) parsley, fresh, minced
1 tsp dried thyme, fresh, minced or 1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions

* Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tablespoon of oil to skillet. Add onions and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.

* Move onions and peppers to side of pan; add remaining tablespoon of oil. When oil is heated, add potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally so potatoes don’t stick, about 20 minutes. Add steak, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper; toss well. Cook until heated through, about 2 to 5 minutes. Yields about 1 cup per serving.

Notes

* *To cook a 1-inch-thick flank steak, coat a grill pan or broiler pan with cooking spray. Preheat grill pan or broiler (with prepared broiler pan in broiler) to high heat. Rub both sides of steak with a smashed garlic clove; discard garlic. Cook meat, turning once, about 4 minute per side. Remove steak to cutting board and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Allow steak to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
