Ingredients

1.5 pounds Yukon gold or russet potatoes, diced

2 tablespoons olive oil

0.5 teaspoon kosher salt

0.25 teaspoon black pepper

1 small yellow onion, finely diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 large eggs

0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

2 green onions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped

0.25 cup cream cheese, cubed

Instructions

Step 1: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and beginning to crisp.

Step 2: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil along with the diced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the potatoes are fully cooked.

Step 3: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4: Create four wells within the hash mixture. Carefully crack one egg into each well. Lightly season the eggs with salt and pepper. Cover the skillet and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until the eggs reach your desired doneness.

Step 5: Evenly sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning over the hash. If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture and allow it to melt.

Step 6: Dot the hash with cubed cream cheese. Scatter the thinly sliced green onions and chopped chives over the top.

Step 7: Serve the breakfast hash hot, directly from the skillet.

Tips & Variations

For extra crispiness, soak diced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking, then pat dry thoroughly.

Use smoked cheddar or pepper jack cheese for a flavor twist.

Add cooked breakfast sausage or bacon for additional protein.

If you prefer your eggs firmly cooked, increase the covered cooking time to 7–8 minutes.

FAQs

Can I use other types of potatoes?

Yes, Yukon gold and russet are recommended for their texture, but red potatoes or sweet potatoes can also work with slight adjustments in cooking time.
