Ingredients
- 2 medium, diced into 1/2-inch cubes russet potatoes
- 6 strips, cut into 1-inch pieces bacon strips
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp cannabis-infused olive oil
- 1 small, finely chopped yellow onion
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 6 pieces of bacon. Cook for 6-8 minutes until crispy, stirring occasionally, then transfer bacon to paper towels to drain and reserve 1 tbsp bacon fat in the skillet.
- Step 2: Add 2 medium diced russet potatoes and 1 small finely chopped yellow onion to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat. Sauté over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden and tender.
- Step 3: Drizzle 1 tbsp cannabis-infused olive oil and 2 tbsp maple syrup over the potatoes and onions. Stir gently to coat and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the glaze thickens and the mixture is fragrant.
- Step 4: Return the crispy bacon to the skillet, season with 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves. Stir to combine and cook for 1 more minute.
- Step 5: Create four small wells in the skillet mixture and crack 4 large eggs into each well. Cover the skillet and cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes until the egg whites are set but yolks remain runny.
- Step 6: Garnish with 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before serving warm.
