Cowboy Breakfast Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • hot sauce, to taste
  • shredded cheese, optional
  • salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Brown the sausage in an ovenproof skillet, breaking it into crumbles, until it reaches 160°F (71°C). Transfer it to a plate with a slotted spoon.
  3. Cook the sweet potatoes in the rendered fat until tender and crisp at the edges. Return the sausage to the skillet.
  4. Make four wells in the mixture and crack one egg into each. Bake for about 5 minutes, then broil briefly until the whites are fully set and the yolks reach the desired doneness.
  5. Top with avocado, cilantro, hot sauce and optional cheese. Season and serve hot.
