Roasted Russet and Sweet Potato Hash With Chorizo

1 pound russet or baking potatoes, peeled and cut into ¾-inch cubes

1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ¾-inch cubes

1½ tablespoons olive oil

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

3½ ounces fresh chorizo (casings removed), pinched into small pieces no larger than ½-inch

6 ounces sweet onion, cut into ½-inch pieces

Heat the oven to 375 degrees.

Combine the potatoes and oil in a nonstick roasting pan large enough to accommodate the pieces in a single layer. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss to make sure the potatoes are evenly coated. Roast for 20 minutes.

Add the chorizo and onion to the pan; use a spatula to turn the potato pieces over and distribute the onion chunks. Roast 20-30 minutes, turning the potatoes over every 10 minutes, until the potatoes and onions are tender when pierced with a fork.

Serves five to six.
