Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 cups skin-on red potatoes, thinly sliced
2 cups whole baby carrots, fresh or frozen
2 cups whole green beans, frozen
2 cups whole wax beans, frozen
1 red pepper, thinly sliced
1 green pepper, thinly sliced
2 cups (1 pound) cooked, diced ham or cooked smoked sausage, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup lard or your favorite cooking oil
Paprika, garlic, and pepper to taste

Steps:

Starting with the vegetable that takes the longest to cook (depending on whether you precook the potatoes or carrots), stir-fry everything in the hot oil in a preheated wok or large skillet. Park cooks use lard to make this stir-fry, but vegetable oil is used in the cooking classes. If you want traditional Silver Dollar City taste, stick with lard. In the park, the potatoes are thinly sliced and stir-fried raw, but the cooking class suggests precooking the potatoes and carrots in the microwave oven for faster stir-frying. Frozen vegetables should be thawed.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 tablespoons bacon drippings or 2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup green sweet pepper, diced
1 lb russet potato, thinly sliced
3/4 lb sweet potato, peeled and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (I like a cajun seasoned salt)
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1-inch slices

Steps:

Add the bacon drippings or olive oil to a large skillet. Preheat over medium heat until the drippings or oil is just hot. Add the diced onion and diced green sweet pepper. Cook the onion and pepper until they're tender.
Add the unpeeled, sliced russet potatoes, the sliced sweet potatoes and water to the vegetables in the skillet. If adding sausage, stir it in now. Sprinkle the mixture with the seasoning or seasoned salt.
Cover and cook over medium heat for 12 to 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender, turning potatoes once or twice.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
Choose Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final dish. Whenever possible, use fresh, seasonal produce and high-quality meats and cheeses.
Cook the Meat Properly: Properly cooked meat is essential for a successful Harvest Skillet. Cook the meat over medium heat until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked meat will be tough and dry.
Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the meat, don't overcrowd the pan. If you do, the meat will not cook evenly and will likely steam instead of sear.
Use a Variety of Vegetables: Harvest Skillet is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to experiment with different combinations of vegetables, such as potatoes, carrots, onions, zucchini, and bell peppers.
Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season your Harvest Skillet generously. A good rule of thumb is to use 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper per pound of meat.
Serve Immediately: Harvest Skillet is best served immediately after it is cooked. The vegetables will be at their best when they are still crisp and tender.

Conclusion:

Harvest Skillet is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and meat, and it can be easily customized to your liking. With a little planning and preparation, you can make a Harvest Skillet that the whole family will love.
