Ingredients

• 4 medium Potatoes
• 1.5 cups Cooked ham
• 1 medium Onion
• 1 medium Bell pepper
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 4 large Eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel and dice the potatoes into small, uniform pieces, about 1/2-inch cubes.

Step 3

Chop the cooked ham into bite-sized chunks. Finely dice the onion and bell pepper, and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and slightly crisp on the outside.

Step 6

Stir in the onion, bell pepper, and garlic, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften.

Step 7

Add the chopped ham, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.

Step 8

Spread the hash mixture evenly across the skillet. Using the back of a spoon, make four small wells in the hash.

Step 9

Crack one egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolks.

Step 10

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny.

Step 11

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two.

Step 12

Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot directly from the skillet.
