**Savory All-Day Breakfast Skillet**
**Ingredients:**
– 6 slices of bacon, chopped
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 red bell pepper, chopped
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 4 cups of frozen hash browns
– 1 tsp paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 6 large eggs
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
**Instructions:**
1. In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2. In the same skillet with the bacon drippings, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add the frozen hash browns to the skillet, spreading them out in an even layer. Let them cook without stirring for a few minutes to develop a crispy crust on the bottom.
4. Sprinkle the paprika, salt, and pepper over the hash browns. Stir to combine all the ingredients and continue cooking until the hash browns are golden and crispy.
5. Create small wells in the hash brown mixture using a spoon. Crack one egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs cook to your desired level of doneness. For runny yolks, cook for about 5-7 minutes. If you prefer firm yolks, cook for 8-10 minutes.
6. Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the skillet. Cover again and let the cheese melt for about 2 minutes.
7. Garnish the skillet with the crispy bacon and chopped parsley. Serve hot, directly from the skillet, for a cozy breakfast experience.
