St. James of Jerusalem Bacon Breakfast Skillet

Course: Dessert
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

  • 5 bacon strips
  • 3 medium potatoes
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 jalapeño optional
  • 5 eggs
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat a large cast iron skillet to medium high heat and place bacon strips to cook until crispy. Meanwhile, dice the potatoes, onion, and peppers. 
  • Remove the bacon and set aside on a paper towel.
  • Pour the bacon grease out of the pan until 4-5 tablespoons remain and drop the potatoes in the hot skillet to cook in a single layer. Leave the potatoes to cook undisturbed until golden brown on the first side, then flip them to another side and add in the onion and peppers.
  • Stir the skillet sparingly but enough to cook all contents evenly. 
  • Once the potatoes are cooked through, make five wells in the skillet and crack the eggs into them. Cover and cook until eggs are desired done-ness. 
  • Chop the bacon and spread over the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!
