Ingredients
- 6 slices center-cut beef, diced
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1½ pounds russet potatoes, peeled and diced into ¾-inch chunks
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅓ cup minced chives or chopped green onions
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook diced beef until nearly crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Prepare Potatoes: In the same skillet, heat olive oil and sauté diced potatoes in a single layer. Cook until golden and nearly tender, stirring occasionally (10–15 minutes).
- Season: Add garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Combine well, then mix in cooked beef and most of the chives, reserving some for garnish.
- Create Egg Pockets: Form four wells in the hash. Crack one egg into each well.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle cheddar over the mixture, avoiding the eggs. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to medium. Cook until eggs are set to preference (around 3 minutes).
- Serve: Season with black pepper and garnish with remaining chives. Serve hot.
Notes
- For variation, add vegetables like bell peppers or spinach.
- Substitute cheddar with mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor.
- Monitor eggs closely to prevent overcooking.
- Use frozen diced potatoes as a time-saver; ensure they are thawed and dry.
