Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 pound low-sodium ham, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
3 tablespoons whole-wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 1/2 cups fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
2/3 cup low-fat (2 percent) milk
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 small onion, chopped
2 large Yukon gold potatoes (about 1 pound), diced
1 10-ounce package frozen mixed peas and carrots
1 10-ounce package frozen mixed peas and carrots

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, potatoes and frozen peas and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the ham, flour and thyme and cook, stirring, until combined. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil, then stir in the milk and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful vegetables and a good-quality ham will make all the difference in this dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too many vegetables at once, they will steam instead of sautéing and you'll end up with a soggy mess. Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Season well: Don't be afraid to add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp: You don't want them to be mushy, but you also don't want them to be raw. A few minutes of cooking is usually all it takes.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot out of the skillet. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, such as parsley or cilantro.

Conclusion:

This ham and veggie skillet is a quick, easy, and delicious weeknight meal. It's packed with flavor and nutrients, and it's sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
