Ingredients
  

3 medium potatoes, diced (approximately 4 cups)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, finely diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped (adjust based on your heat preference)

1 cup cooked turkey or chicken sausage, crumbled

1 cup fresh green chili, roasted and chopped (or 1 can of diced green chilies)

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large eggs

Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped, for garnish

Sliced avocado, for serving (optional)

Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: In a large pot, fill it with salted water and bring it to a rolling boil. Add the diced potatoes and boil for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are just tender but not mushy. Drain the cooked potatoes and set them aside to cool.

    Sauté the Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Then, add the minced garlic along with the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and finely chopped jalapeño. Continue to sauté for another 4-5 minutes, ensuring the vegetables become softened and fragrant.

      Combine Ingredients: Add the drained, cooked potatoes to the skillet, along with the crumbled sausage, roasted green chili, smoked paprika, ground cumin, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir everything together thoroughly to combine, and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the edges of the potatoes to become slightly crispy and the flavors to meld beautifully.

        Cook the Eggs: In a separate non-stick skillet, cook the eggs to your liking—whether you prefer them sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled. Remember to season with a pinch of salt and pepper for extra flavor.

          Assemble the Hash: Divide the hearty breakfast hash onto individual plates. Top each serving generously with a fried egg, allowing the yolk to act as a rich sauce.

            Serve: For an added touch, serve with sliced avocado and lime wedges on the side. Fresh chopped cilantro or parsley sprinkled on top will elevate the dish with vibrant color and freshness. Enjoy your spicy and satisfying breakfast!
