A hearty and satisfying breakfast hash featuring crispy breakfast potatoes, tender steak pieces, and runny yolk eggs, perfect for brunch or breakfast-for-dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (for garnish)
  • 8 ounces cooked steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small bell pepper, diced (optional)
  • Fresh ground black pepper and sea salt, to taste
  • Optional extras: hot sauce or salsa, shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese, avocado slices

Instructions

  1. Prep the potatoes by peeling and dicing into 1/2-inch cubes. Rinse in cold water to remove excess starch, then parboil in salted water for about 5 minutes until just tender but still firm. Drain and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to form a golden crust. Toss occasionally to brown all sides. Stir in smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper halfway through cooking. Add chopped onion and bell pepper about 5 minutes before finishing to soften and caramelize.
  3. Add steak pieces to the skillet with potatoes for the last few minutes to warm and sear. If steak is thick or cold, warm gently first then increase heat briefly for a crisp edge.
  4. In a separate small skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook eggs sunny-side up or over-easy according to preference. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Divide the crispy steak and breakfast potatoes onto plates, top each serving with eggs, and sprinkle fresh herbs over everything. Add optional extras like cheese, avocado, or hot sauce if desired.

Notes

Parboiling and thoroughly drying the potatoes before frying is key to achieving a crispy crust. Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming. Reheat leftovers in a skillet to maintain crispiness. Use olive or avocado oil for a dairy-free option. Eggs are best cooked sunny-side up with runny yolks for a sauce-like effect.
