Ingredients
- 8 oz smoked brisket, shredded
- 2 medium (about 500g) russet potatoes
- 2 medium poblano peppers
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 450°F. Place 2 poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, turning halfway, until skins are charred and blistered. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 10 minutes. Peel off skins, remove seeds, and dice peppers.
- Step 2: Peel and dice 2 russet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until golden and tender.
- Step 3: Add 1 diced medium yellow onion and 2 minced garlic cloves to the skillet with potatoes. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions are translucent and fragrant.
- Step 4: Stir in 8 oz shredded smoked brisket, diced roasted poblanos, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and remaining 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Cook for 3-4 minutes until mixture is heated through and flavors meld.
- Step 5: In a separate nonstick pan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Crack 4 large eggs and cook sunny-side up for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny.
- Step 6: Divide brisket hash onto plates and top each serving with a sunny-side egg. Serve immediately for a bold Texas-inspired breakfast.
