In a medium pot, cover potatoes with 2 inches of salted cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain.
Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and celery – cook for 8-10 minutes or until onions are soft. Add garlic and cook another 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add red and green peppers, and crushed red pepper flakes – cook for 5 minutes. Add potatoes and cook until just heated through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
