Description

A rustic and satisfying one-skillet meal featuring golden pan-roasted potatoes and gently cooked eggs, seasoned with garlic and paprika, and finished with fresh parsley. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium Yukon Gold Potatoes: diced small, for a creamy center and crispy edges
  • 4 large Eggs: provide richness and make the dish complete
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil: helps crisp the potatoes and adds flavor
  • 2 Garlic Cloves: minced, for a bold aromatic punch
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika: adds warmth and a subtle smokiness
  • 1 teaspoon Salt: enhances the natural flavors
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper: brings a gentle heat
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley: chopped, for a bright and herby finish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add diced potatoes, coating them in oil, and season with salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Spread potatoes in a single layer and let them cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes to form a golden crust.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Once potatoes are crispy and tender, create small wells and crack in the eggs.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Cover with a lid and steam until eggs are set and yolks remain soft, about 3–5 minutes.
  6. Finishing Touches: Remove from heat, top with chopped parsley, and season eggs lightly.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve hot with bread, greens, or your favorite brunch sides.

Notes

  • Use waxy potatoes like Yukon Golds or red potatoes for best results.
  • Parboiling potatoes speeds up cooking and improves crispiness.
  • Try adding feta or cheddar for an extra layer of flavor.
