Bacon, Egg, and Potato Breakfast Skillet
Bacon, Egg, and Potato Breakfast Skillet all made in one pan! Cheesy potatoes with bacon and over easy eggs on top. You'll love this easy breakfast recipe.
Ingredients
- 4 strips bacon cut into 1-inch pieces
- 6 cups frozen cubed southern style hash browns, fresh potatoes can also be used, (about 3/4 of 30 ounce bag)
- 1/2 cup white onion
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 clove minced garlic, (this is optional)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions, (optional)
Equipment
large skillet (I love this nontoxic one from GreenPan)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, leaving about 2 tablespoons of drippings in the skillet.
- Add onion and potatoes to the pan stirring to coat in bacon drippings and cook for a couple of minutes. Add water and cover skillet. Cook for 15 minutes or until soft, only flipping once or twice. When you let the potatoes sit without flipping, they get nice and brown. Stir in garlic and cook for a minute. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
- Make four wells in the potatoes, exposing the skillet underneath. Carefully, crack the egg in each spot. Cover skillet and let eggs cook over low heat until egg whites are set, about 8-10 minutes. Sprinkle cheese and bacon on top during the last couple minutes of cooking. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
