Instructions
Spray the bottom and sides of a slow cooker (at least 5 quarts) with nonstick spray.
Quarter 3 pounds red baby potatoes. Dice 1 green bell pepper, 1 red bell pepper, and 1 small yellow onion. Mince 4 cloves garlic.
Put the quartered potatoes, diced green and red bell peppers, diced onion, and minced garlic into the prepared slow cooker.
Sprinkle 1 3/4 teaspoons seasoned salt and 2 teaspoons smoked paprika evenly over the vegetables.
Scatter 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter (diced) over the top, drizzle 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, then stir well so the potatoes and vegetables are evenly coated.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender. Begin checking for doneness about 30 minutes before the minimum cook time to avoid overcooking.
When the potatoes are tender, uncover and stir. If there is excess liquid, drain or spoon off as desired.
Season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste and serve hot.
