# Directions:

01 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally until potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender. Transfer cooked potatoes to a plate and set aside.

03 - If the pan is dry, add a drizzle of oil. Stir in chopped onion, diced red and green bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until vegetables are soft and aromatic.
04 - Return cooked potatoes to the skillet. Sprinkle smoked paprika and chili flakes over mixture if desired. Toss all ingredients and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until edges begin to crisp.
05 - Create 4 wells in the hash mixture. Crack an egg into each well. Cover skillet and cook on low heat for 4 to 6 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your preferred doneness.
06 - Uncover and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley or chives over the top. Season with extra salt and pepper to taste. Serve directly from the skillet for a rustic presentation.
