Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon cut into pieces
- ½ yellow onion chopped
- 2 medium sweet potatoes ½ inch cubes
- ¼ cup water
- 1 jalapeno diced, stem and seeds removed
- 1 tbs garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt and Pepper each
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup cheese
- Garnish with 2 green onions optional
Instructions
- Cut your bacon in to small pieces. In a large skillet or fry pan cook bacon over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, remove from skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.
- Add chopped onions to skillet and cook for 3 minutes over medium heat. They will start to soften.
- Then add your cubed sweet potatoes, stirring to coat with the bacon grease. Then add water to the skillet, cover and cook over medium heat until they can be easily pierced with a fork. Typically, 20 minutes.
- Once cooked, add in diced jalapeno, garlic powder, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Using a spatula, make four wells in the potatoes, scraping everything away to reveal the bottom of the skillet.
- Crack and egg into each well and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cheese and cooked bacon over the skillet then cover with the lid.
- Continue cooking over medium heat until eggs whites are cooked through and the yolk is as runny or firm as you like it. I recommend checking at 3 minutes then every minute after until eggs are done to your likeness.
