Ingredients
  

Produce
  • 1 pound Russet potatoes washed, dried, and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 0.5 cup Bell pepper diced
  • 0.5 cup Yellow onion diced
Proteins
  • 4 large Eggs room temperature
  • 4 slices Thick-cut bacon chopped
Pantry & Seasonings
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper freshly cracked

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Add the potatoes to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  4. Reduce the temperature to 375°F (190°C). Add the diced bell pepper, onion, and chopped bacon to the basket. Toss to combine and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the bacon is crisp.
  5. Using a spoon, create 4 small wells in the potato mixture. Carefully crack an egg into each well. Season the eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
  6. Return the basket to the air fryer and cook for 4 to 6 minutes, depending on your preferred level of yolk doneness.
  7. Remove carefully, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

Expert Tip: Ensure your potatoes are completely dry before tossing with oil to prevent steaming. Do not overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if you have a smaller air fryer model.
