Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large cast-iron skillet, heat over medium heat. Add the breakfast sausage links and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate. In the same skillet, add chopped bacon and cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes, allowing some grease to remain in the pan for flavor.
- Pour in the diced Russet potatoes into the hot skillet, sprinkling with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden and fork-tender.
- In the cleared space, add diced onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté the mixture for about 3 minutes until the onions are translucent and the garlic becomes fragrant.
- Chop the cooked sausage and bacon into bite-sized pieces, then return them to the skillet. Gently mix everything together, then sprinkle with smoked paprika.
- Create small wells in the mixture for the eggs. Crack an egg into each well, taking care not to break the yolks. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top. Cover the skillet with a lid and lower the heat, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until the egg whites are set and the cheese has melted.
- Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot, accompanied by salsa and hot sauce.
