Vegetables
- 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives or parsley (garnish)
Protein & Dairy
- 4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 large eggs
Other
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the eggs on top of the hash.
- Cook Potatoes: Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become golden and tender.
- Sauté Vegetables: Add diced onions and bell peppers to the skillet with the potatoes. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables have softened.
- Combine Ingredients: Stir in garlic powder, salt, pepper, and the chopped cooked bacon. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors.
- Add Cheese and Eggs: Evenly sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the hash. Create three small wells in the mixture and carefully crack one egg into each well.
- Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven. Garnish with chopped chives or parsley and serve the breakfast hash hot.
Notes
- You can substitute bell peppers with other vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini if desired.
- For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and consider adding more vegetables or plant-based sausage.
- Adjust cooking time for eggs based on your preferred yolk consistency – bake longer for fully set yolks.
- Use an oven-safe skillet to prevent transferring contents and to bake the eggs in the same pan.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in a skillet or oven for best texture.
