Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium sweet potato, diced
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup bell pepper (any color), chopped
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced sweet potato to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until tender and slightly browned.
Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
Stir in the smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the vegetables.
Create two small wells in the hash mixture. Crack one egg into each well.
Cover the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your desired doneness.
Remove from heat. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, add cooked crumbled sausage or bacon to the hash mixture.
If you prefer firmer yolks, cook the eggs slightly longer, covered.
You can substitute regular potatoes for sweet potatoes, but adjust cooking time as needed.
