Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy, your choice)

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large eggs

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the Italian sausage. Break it up with a spatula and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

    Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once heated, add the diced sweet potatoes. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.

      Add Aromatics: Stir in the onion and red bell pepper. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the onions become translucent and the peppers are tender. Add minced garlic, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Season with salt and pepper, then stir well to combine.

        Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked sausage back to the skillet, mixing everything to ensure the flavors meld together. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes, allowing the sweet potatoes to get a little crispy.

          Cook the Eggs: Make four small wells in the hash mixture. Crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the eggs are set to your preference (about 5-7 minutes for runny yolks, longer for firmer yolks).

            Serve: Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the hash with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately, enjoying the delightful combination of flavors!
