Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add the sliced onion to the hot skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.

  3. 3

    Add the diced cooked potatoes to the skillet with the onions. Spread them out and let them crisp up slightly for about 3-4 minutes without stirring. Then, stir and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the shredded or diced cooked chicken, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Season generously with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is heated through and slightly browned.

  5. 5

    Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Divide the hash between two bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with a drizzle of hot sauce or a dollop of ketchup on the side, if using.
