Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb steak, diced
- 2 large potatoes, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 eggs
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by dicing the steak, potatoes, bell pepper, and onion into uniform small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size to ensure even cooking.
- Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and hot.
- Add diced potatoes first and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden brown and starting to crisp on the edges.
- Add diced onions and bell peppers to the skillet, continuing to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized.
- Push vegetables to one side of the skillet and add diced steak to the cleared area. Season steak with additional salt and pepper.
- Cook steak for 2-3 minutes, stirring minimally to allow for nice browning, until it reaches desired doneness (medium-rare to medium recommended).
- Gently mix all ingredients in the skillet, ensuring even distribution of steak and vegetables.
- Create four small wells in the hash mixture and crack an egg into each well.
- Cover the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until egg whites are set but yolks remain runny.
- Remove from heat, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately directly from the skillet.
Tips
- Use a cast-iron skillet for the best heat distribution and crispy texture.
- Cut ingredients into uniform small cubes (about 1/2 inch) to ensure even cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan – this helps ingredients brown instead of steam.
- For extra flavor, season your steak with a blend of garlic powder and smoked paprika.
- Choose a tender cut like sirloin or ribeye for the most succulent results.
- Let the potatoes develop a golden crust before stirring to achieve maximum crispiness.
- Keep egg yolks runny for a luxurious sauce that coats the entire hash.
- Fresh herbs like chives or parsley can add a bright, fresh finish to the dish.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and temperature.
- For a spicy kick, add a dash of hot sauce or sprinkle red pepper flakes before serving.
