Cutting the Bacon and Potatoes

To start, grab your pack of bacon and cut it into slices. You can cut them to your desired thickness based on your preference. Once you’ve cut the bacon slices, set them aside.

Next, take your potatoes and dice them into even cubes. This will ensure that they cook uniformly and are perfectly tender. For more convenience, use a potato slicer to quickly turn them into French fry-like shapes.

Ensuring Bacon and Potatoes Stay Dry

After dicing the potatoes, it’s important to keep them dry to prevent oxidation. Place the diced potatoes in a bowl of cold water, which helps remove excess starch and keeps them from turning brown. Rinse them thoroughly and then pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess water.

Seasoning the Potatoes with a Seasoning Mix

Potatoes are incredibly versatile and can soak up flavors. To add extra taste to the skillet, season the diced potatoes with your favorite seasoning mix. AB recommends using his Level Up seasoning, which brings a burst of flavor to the dish. Coat the potatoes evenly with the seasoning mix, ensuring that each piece is well-seasoned.

Adding Onions and Bell Peppers to the Skillet

Heat your skillet and add the bacon grease that was set aside earlier. If you don’t have enough bacon grease, you can use canola oil as a substitute. Add the diced onions to the skillet first and give them a head start in cooking. Let them cook until they become translucent and start to brown.

Once the onions are cooked, it’s time to add the chopped red and green bell peppers. Bell peppers add a fantastic burst of color and flavor to the skillet. Cook them until they become slightly tender and take on a vibrant hue. Remember to season them with salt and pepper to enhance their taste.

Adding the Bacon Back into the Skillet

Now it’s time to reintroduce the bacon slices back into the skillet. Mix them in with the onions and bell peppers, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the skillet. The combination of the bacon, onions, and bell peppers will create a heavenly aroma that will make your taste buds tingle with anticipation.

Placing Skillet on Heat

With the bacon, onions, and bell peppers simmering in the skillet, it’s time to add the diced potatoes. Spread the seasoned diced potatoes over the skillet, making sure to distribute them in an even layer. The potatoes will soak up all the flavors from the bacon and vegetables, making them incredibly delicious.

Topping the Skillet with Eggs

Now comes the star of the dish – the eggs! Use the back of a ladle to create four indentations in the skillet. This will be where you crack the eggs. Gently crack each egg and place it into one of the indentations. The eggs will cook directly on top of the skillet, soaking up all the flavors from the ingredients underneath.

Cooking the Eggs Over Easy

For this recipe, we recommend cooking the eggs over easy. This means that the whites will be set, while the yolks remain slightly runny. The runny yolk adds a creamy and delicious element to the dish. Cook the eggs to your desired level of doneness, keeping an eye on them to prevent overcooking.

Sprinkling Cheddar Cheese Over the Skillet

To take this Country Breakfast Skillet to the next level, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the entire dish. The cheese will melt and create a gooey, savory layer over the skillet. The combination of the cheese, bacon, eggs, and vegetables creates a flavor explosion that will leave you craving for more.

Garnishing with Green Onions

To add a pop of freshness and color, garnish the Country Breakfast Skillet with freshly chopped green onions. The green onions not only enhance the visual appeal of the dish but also provide a subtle onion flavor that complements the other ingredients.

Final Appearance of the Country Breakfast Skillet

Take a moment to appreciate the final appearance of the Country Breakfast Skillet. The vibrant colors, perfectly cooked eggs, and melted cheese create an irresistible dish that is sure to impress anyone who sets their eyes on it.
