Potatoes O'Brien

As I have been searching for a great low glycemic (very slow digesting) nutrient rich meal to add to my usual higher protein diet, I looked no further than a version of homefries that you would typically have for breakfast.  This is none other than Potatoes O'Brien.

This is an incredibly simple recipe that has plenty of slow digesting carbs, vitamin C, and a host of other nutrients to help you pile-drive your body with energy.

So no futher here is the next recipe!

INGREDIENTS:
Russet Potatoes - 1/2 of a nice idaho spud
Onion - 1 thick slice of a yellow or red onion
Bell Peppers - 1/2 a bell pepper; yellow, red, or green (COLORS!!!)
Ground Black Pepper
Sea Salt
Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 2 tablespoons

STEPS TO SUCCESS:

Traditional Way:
1.  Preheat a pan on medium (I use setting 5 on a 1-10 heat range)
2.  As the pan preheats, add the Extra Virgin Olive Oil to allow it to heat up (it'll add the crispiness)
2.  Cube the potato, peppers, and onion.  About as big as the width of one of your fingers (or to your liking)
3.  When you see a light smoke coming off the pan from the oil (this means the oil is to temperature), add the potatoes, onions, and peppers.
HERE IS A PICTURE OF THE MIX IN THE PAN:

4.  Add a pinch of sea salt, and crack as much black pepper as you would like onto those bad boys.
5.  Pan fry for about 10 minutes, for a soft potato inside and crunchy outside.  Flipping the mixture about every 2-3 minutes.

My meal tonight consisted of 4 eggs (4 whites, 1 yolk), a big ol' seared portobella mushroom, and this dish above. 

 It was a fantastic meal for protein, slow digesting carbs, and high vitamin nutrition. The yolk may be high in saturated fats, but the nutritional benefit with 4 yolks was worth it.  ENJOY!!!
