Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 red bell pepper chopped
  • 1/2 green bell pepper chopped
  • 1/4 medium onion chopped
  • 2 large eggs optional for topping
  • 1/2 avocado sliced (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Salsa for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the potatoes: Wash, peel, and dice the potatoes into small cubes.
  • Cook the potatoes: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until crispy and golden brown.
  • Season the potatoes: Sprinkle chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper over the potatoes. Stir well to evenly coat the potatoes with the spices.
  • Sauté the vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped red and green bell peppers and onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften and become fragrant.
  • Prepare the eggs (optional): If you’d like, cook the eggs in a separate pan to your liking (fried, scrambled, or poached).
  • Assemble the dish: Once the potatoes are crispy and cooked through, remove them from the heat and top with your fried eggs, sliced avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. Serve with salsa for added flavor, if desired.
  • Serve and enjoy: Your Mexican Potatoes Breakfast is now ready to enjoy! Serve with warm tortillas or on its own for a hearty meal.
