Ingredients
- 2 medium russet potatoes
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp, finely minced fresh chives
- 1 tbsp, finely chopped fresh dill
- 2 tbsp whole milk
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss 2 medium peeled and diced russet potatoes (1/2-inch cubes) with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, and 1/2 tsp kosher salt until evenly coated.
- Step 2: Spread potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, stirring once at 15 minutes, until golden and crispy around the edges.
- Step 3: While potatoes roast, whisk 4 large eggs with 2 tbsp whole milk in a bowl until smooth. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low, add a pinch of salt, and pour in eggs. Gently scramble for 3-4 minutes until softly set but still moist, folding in 2 tbsp minced chives and 1 tbsp chopped dill during the last minute.
