There's something irresistibly cozy about starting your day with a hearty breakfast, and Sausage and Potato Breakfast Bowls are the perfect way to kick off a morning. This dish brings together savory ingredients in a one-pan wonder, making it not only a satisfying meal but also an easy clean-up.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 medium russet potatoes, diced into ½-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil, preferably extra virgin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound breakfast sausage (pork or turkey), removed from casings
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon butter
Chopped green onions or chives for garnish
Shredded cheese (optional)
Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Start by preparing the potatoes: Dice the russet potatoes into small, uniform pieces, approximately ½-inch cubes. Rinse the diced potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a clean towel.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced potatoes, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the potatoes evenly.
Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, crumble the sausage and cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until browned.
Once the potatoes and sausage are cooked, combine them in the skillet and mix well. Reduce the heat to low to keep warm.
In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, cooking to your preference (sunny-side up or over-easy).
Serve the sausage and potato mixture in bowls, topping each with an egg. Sprinkle with chopped green onions or chives, add shredded cheese if desired, and drizzle with hot sauce.
