Ingredients
  

2 medium russet potatoes, diced into small cubes

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 green bell pepper, chopped

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage (or plant-based sausage)

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Hot sauce (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep the Potatoes: Begin by rinsing the diced russet potatoes under cold running water to eliminate excess starch, which enhances crispiness. After rinsing, use a clean kitchen towel to pat them dry thoroughly.

    Cook the Potatoes: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the dried potatoes to the skillet. Season them with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Cook for approximately 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes achieve a golden brown color and are tender when pierced with a fork.

      Sauté the Vegetables: Move the cooked potatoes to one side of the skillet to create space. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the vacant area and toss in the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and fragrant. Incorporate the minced garlic and dried thyme, cooking for another minute until aromatic.

        Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage to the skillet, mixing it thoroughly with the potatoes and sautéed vegetables. Allow the mixture to cook together for 2-3 minutes, giving the flavors a chance to meld beautifully.

          Add Eggs: Using a spatula, create four small wells within the hash mixture and gently crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the eggs to cook until they reach your preferred doneness – about 5-6 minutes for runny yolks or longer if you prefer firmer yolks.

            Serve and Garnish: Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from heat. Generously sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the hash for a burst of color and flavor. Serve immediately while hot, with hot sauce on the side if desired for an extra kick.

                Optional Presentation Tips: Serve the hash in deep bowls to showcase the colorful ingredients, and consider placing a sprinkle of extra parsley on top for added visual appeal. A drizzle of hot sauce can be artistically swirled on top for a vibrant touch. Enjoy your hearty and delicious breakfast!
