Description

Hash brown potatoes, eggs, and bacon are combined with jalapeno, resulting in a spicy, one-skillet breakfast hash that's perfect for two.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 (12 ounce) package frozen hash brown potatoes
3 slices bacon
1/2 large red bell pepper, chopped
1 medium jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
4 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon hot sauce

Directions

1 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add hash browns and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through, about 15 minutes. Use a spatula to break up potatoes into smaller pieces. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Wipe out the skillet.
2 Place bacon in the skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle. Clean out the grease from the skillet.
3 Saute bell pepper in the skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to char, 5 to 7 minutes. Add jalapeno and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add hash browns and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, and add eggs and bacon; stir until eggs are cooked, about 3 minutes. Add Cheddar, sour cream, and hot sauce.
