Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1.5 pound sweet potatoes peeled and 0.5-inch dice
  • 1 cup yellow onion diced
  • 1 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 4 cup kale stems removed, chopped
  • 2 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt divided, to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 0.25 cup water for steaming the potatoes
  • 4 large eggs
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro chopped, for garnish

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place a 12-inch oven-safe skillet (cast iron preferred) over medium heat.
  • Add olive oil. Stir in onion and bell pepper and cook until slightly softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add diced sweet potatoes, smoked paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Pour in the water, cover the skillet, and cook, stirring once or twice, until the potatoes are nearly tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Uncover, stir in garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add kale and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and season with remaining salt if needed.
  • Make 4 small wells in the hash and crack an egg into each. Season the eggs lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until egg whites are set and yolks are cooked to your liking, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, sprinkle with cilantro, and serve hot.

Notes

Use baby kale for a milder bite or spinach in a pinch. For extra protein, add cooked breakfast sausage or black beans before baking the eggs. Leftovers keep up to 3 days in the refrigerator; reheat in a skillet over medium heat and add a freshly cooked egg.
