Directions
- 1
Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- 2
Add crumbled breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving some drippings in the skillet.
- 3
Add chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- 4
Stir in diced bell peppers and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until tender-crisp.
- 5
Add diced potatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
- 6
Stir in dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and mix everything together.
- 7
Create 6 small wells in the skillet mixture. Crack an egg into each well.
- 8
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny, about 5-7 minutes, depending on desired doneness.
- 9
Just before the eggs are fully set, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the entire skillet.
- 10
Continue to cook, covered, for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
