A hearty and flavorful breakfast skillet combining eggs, crispy bacon, and seasoned potatoes, perfect for a satisfying start to your day.
Cook the bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crispy, then remove and set aside.
Cooking the bacon first allows you to use its rendered fat for added flavor in the next steps.
Dice the potatoes and onions, then add them to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat. Cook until golden and tender.
Cut the potatoes into small, even pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Whisking the eggs thoroughly incorporates air, making them fluffier when cooked.
Pour the eggs into the skillet with the potatoes and onions, stirring gently until the eggs are just set.
Stirring gently prevents the eggs from overcooking and keeps them soft.
Sprinkle the cheese over the top and add the cooked bacon back to the skillet. Cook until the cheese melts.
Covering the skillet briefly can help the cheese melt faster.
Garnish with chopped tomatoes, chives, and parsley before serving.
Adding fresh herbs and tomatoes at the end enhances the dish's flavor and presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious breakfast skillet.
Serving the dish hot ensures the best texture and flavor.
