Instructions
Making the Sweet Potato Breakfast Skillet With Bacon is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Cook the Bacon: In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
2. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
3. Add Sweet Potatoes: Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet. Stir well to coat with the bacon fat. Season with paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
4. Cook Until Tender: Cover the skillet and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender.
5. Add Garlic: Once the sweet potatoes are nearly cooked, add the minced garlic and stir for an additional 2 minutes.
6. Combine Bacon: Return the cooked bacon to the skillet and mix well to combine.
7. Optional Eggs: If you’d like to add eggs, create two small wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover and cook until the eggs are set to your liking.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
