Ingredients
  

2 medium potatoes, diced into ½-inch cubes

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 bell pepper (green or red), diced

1 small zucchini, diced

1 can (4 oz) green chilies, drained

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large eggs

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Slices of avocado (for serving)

Instructions
 

Blanch the Potatoes: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and blanch them for about 6-8 minutes, or until they are just tender but not fully cooked. Drain the potatoes in a colander and set them aside to cool slightly.

    Sauté the Onions and Garlic: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the finely chopped onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and continue to cook for an additional minute, or until fragrant.

      Incorporate Peppers and Zucchini: Add the diced bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook the mixture for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and begin to release their juices.

        Mix in the Potatoes and Seasonings: Stir in the blanched potatoes, drained green chilies, smoked paprika, ground cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Allow the hash to cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes start to crisp up and the flavors are well combined.

          Cook the Eggs: In a separate non-stick skillet, prepare the eggs to your liking—frying, poaching, or scrambling. Season them lightly with salt and pepper during cooking.

            Presentation: Once everything is ready, divide the breakfast hash among plates or bowls. Top each portion with a cooked egg and garnish generously with fresh cilantro and slices of creamy avocado.

              Serve and Enjoy: This delicious and hearty breakfast is best enjoyed hot! Serve immediately and celebrate the vibrant flavors of your Green Chili Breakfast Hash.
