Chorizo & Sweet Potato Hash with Poached Eggs
Hearty and Delicious
Ingredients (approx):
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced (~½-inch cubes)
4 oz chorizo (Spanish or Mexican style), removed from casing & crumbled
1 small red onion, chopped
1 bell pepper (any color), chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp ground cumin
Salt & pepper to taste
2-4 eggs (depending on servings)
Optional: chopped fresh cilantro, hot sauce
Instructions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo, cook ~3-4 minutes until it begins to brown and release oils.
Add onion + bell pepper, sauté ~3–4 minutes until softened.
Add diced sweet potatoes, smoked paprika, cumin, salt & pepper. Stir to combine. Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, cook ~10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sweet potatoes are tender and slightly crisped.
Meanwhile, poach the eggs: Bring a pot of water to gentle simmer, add a splash of vinegar (vinegar will help keep the eggs together), crack each egg into small bowl then gently slide into simmering water; cook ~3-4 minutes until whites set but yolks still soft (or longer if desired).
Serve hash on plates, top each serving with a poached egg. Sprinkle chopped cilantro and a dash of hot sauce if you like.
Enjoy immediately.
