Ingredients
Method
Crisp the Bacon
- Heat a 12-inch heavy cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped halal beef bacon and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deeply browned and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving 1 tablespoon of drippings in the skillet.
Caramelize the Sweet Potatoes
- Add olive oil to the skillet with the bacon drippings. Add the cubed sweet potatoes in an even layer. Cook undisturbed for 4 minutes to achieve a golden-brown crust. Stir and continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sweet potatoes are tender with crispy caramelized edges.
Sauté Veggies & Season
- Push potatoes slightly to the side; add diced onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until vegetables soften and become aromatic. Season with smoked paprika, cumin, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together, then fold in baby spinach until just wilted.
Cook Eggs & Serve
- Return crispy bacon to the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to create 4 small wells in the sweet potato hash. Crack one fresh egg into each well.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet with a lid, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until egg whites are set and yolks remain velvety and runny. Garnish with sliced scallions and avocado, and serve warm immediately straight from the skillet!
