skillet

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/2" squares
1 medium green bell pepper sliced into strips
1 medium sweet onion sliced into strips
kosher salt
ground black pepper
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
4 hot dogs
4 hot dog buns you'll need buns that are larger than the usual hot dog bun. Bratwurst buns works great too!
Creole mustard or whole grain

Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat.
Add potatoes. Spread them out evenly and let cook 2-3 minutes. Do not stir, you want them to brown.
Flip the potatoes and again cook 2-3 minutes, undisturbed. Remove.
Add the pepper and onion strips to the skillet.
Season with salt and pepper and cook, undisturbed, for 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook 2-3 more minutes without stirring.
Add the potatoes back to the skillet along with the Italian seasoning.
Stir, reduce heat to medium, cover and let cook 8-10 minutes or until the potatoes are softened.
Meanwhile, grill or cook your hot dogs and toast your buns, if desired.
Slather the buns with the mustard.
Add the dogs and top with the potato mixture.

Notes

Cut a long narrow slit in your dogs before cooking to give the toppings a great place to go!
