Today, a delicious SKILLET POTATOES, OLIVES, AND PEPPERS SIDE DISH to enjoy maybe with a scrumptious bruschetta of wheat bread. This side dish pairs exceptionally well with main courses, both white and red meats, especially those grilled. If you prefer the pepper without the skin, because it’s hard to digest, cook them in the oven first, then place them in a food bag for a few minutes to peel them more easily. However, I recommend adding them to the potatoes in the pan when they are almost cooked. The consistency of the pepper will change, becoming softer and less crunchy, but you will achieve an equally good result with a lighter dish.
