Ingredients

• 3 medium Russet potatoes
• 6 slices Bacon
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 small Yellow onion
• 2 medium Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the potatoes into small 1/2-inch cubes and set them aside in a bowl of water to prevent browning.

Step 2

Chop the bacon into 1-inch pieces. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Step 4

In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, leaving about 1-2 tablespoons in the pan. Add the olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Drain and pat dry the diced potatoes. Add them to the skillet in an even layer. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender.

Step 6

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the potatoes. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

Step 7

Return the cooked bacon to the skillet, stirring to combine with the potatoes and onions.

Step 8

Using a spoon, create four small wells in the mixture. Crack one egg into each well. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny (or longer if you prefer firm yolks).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 10

Serve immediately, directly from the skillet, for a hearty and delicious meal.
