Egg-Free Chicken Apple Hash

This Egg-Free Chicken Apple Breakfast Hash is so simple and is the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

I always have ingredients on hand at home for an easy hash. How about you? I love them. They’re so fast and you can switch them up a million different ways. Plus they’re satisfying. You won’t be hungry again until lunch.

For this recipe you’ll need (full list of ingredients and instructions are in the recipe card below):

• Chicken sausage
• Olive oil
• Potatoes
• Apples
• A few simple seasonings

Can you use a different sausage?

Tips to getting your potatoes tender in a hash

• Dice your potatoes so they’re 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch. The larger your potatoes pieces the longer they’ll need to cook so don’t go too big.
• Make sure you cut those potatoes all the same size. If some chunks are large they’ll cook more slowly while your smaller pieces get overdone.
• Use a large enough skillet so that your potatoes don’t overcrowd the pan. You want as many potatoes as possible to touch the bottom surface of the skillet. I always use a 12″ nonstick skillet when I make a hash.
• Don’t flip your potatoes too frequently. You want the potatoes touching the bottom of the pan to have time to brown.
• But DO flip those potatoes. While you can move the potatoes around too much, you can also move them around too little. Stir occasionally so that all the potatoes have a chance to rest on the bottom for browning.
• Don’t be afraid of a higher heat. I cook my skillet potatoes on medium-high heat. This temp is plenty high to brown my potatoes and get them tender fairly quickly. If you’re cooking on medium or medium-low you’ll find that your potatoes take a mighty long time to cook and they won’t brown.
