A hearty and flavorful breakfast skillet combining crispy potatoes, savory sausage, and perfectly cooked eggs.
Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through.
Break the sausage into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside. Leave a small amount of grease in the skillet.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage, leaving the grease for cooking the potatoes.
Add the diced potatoes and chopped onion to the skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
Ensure the potatoes are evenly coated in the grease for better crispiness.
Return the sausage to the skillet and mix with the potatoes and onion.
Mix thoroughly to distribute the sausage evenly.
Make small wells in the potato mixture and crack an egg into each well. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and shredded cheese.
Cover the skillet to help the eggs cook evenly.
Cover the skillet and cook on low heat until the eggs are set to your liking.
Check the eggs occasionally to avoid overcooking.
Serve the skillet breakfast hot, garnished with additional cheese or herbs if desired.
Serve directly from the skillet for a rustic presentation.
