Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 3 medium russet potatoes, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Protein
- 1/2 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
Other Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the Potatoes: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes to get a crispy base, then stir occasionally for another 10 minutes until the potatoes are golden brown and tender. Transfer the cooked potatoes to a plate and set aside.
- Brown the Sausage: In the same skillet, add the ground breakfast sausage. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until it is browned and fully cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside with the potatoes.
- Sauté Vegetables and Seasonings: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Sauté the sliced onion and bell peppers over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika, and cook for an additional 1 minute to blend the flavors.
- Combine All Ingredients: Return the cooked potatoes and sausage to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to combine all ingredients and cook together for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Fry the Eggs: In a separate nonstick pan, fry the eggs to your liking. Sunny-side up or over-easy eggs work best for this recipe as they provide a rich, runny yolk that complements the hash.
- Assemble and Garnish: Spoon the breakfast hash onto plates, top each serving with a fried egg, and garnish with the chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot for a satisfying breakfast experience.
Notes
- You can substitute the ground breakfast sausage with turkey sausage or a vegetarian sausage alternative if desired.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes when sautéing the vegetables.
- If you prefer your eggs scrambled, feel free to cook them that way instead of frying.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
- To make this recipe gluten free, ensure the sausage contains no gluten additives.
