100g bacon, chopped
1 onion, finely diced
3 russet potatoes, scrubbed, chopped into 2cm cubes
60ml water
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2.5g smoked paprika
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
4 large eggs
100g shredded Cheddar cheese
Step 1
Prepare all ingredients.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, and reserve most of the bacon fat in the skillet.
Step 3
Crumble the bacon and set it aside.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to medium. Cook and stir the onion in the reserved bacon fat until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss to coat evenly in the bacon fat. Pour in the water and cover the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in the green onions, garlic, and paprika. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Use a wooden spoon to create 4 wells in the potato mixture, revealing the bottom of the skillet.
Step 6
Crack an egg into each well and season with salt and pepper.
Step 7
Sprinkle the Cheddar cheese and bacon over the entire skillet.
Step 8
Cover and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
