Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 cup Hatch green chilies, diced (roasted, preferably)

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

4 eggs (optional, for topping)

Instructions
 

Prep the Sweet Potatoes: Start by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes into small cubes (about 1/2 inch). This allows for even cooking and makes them crispier.

    Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, sautéing for about 4-5 minutes until they are soft and translucent. Then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Cook Sweet Potatoes: Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and ground cumin. Toss everything together and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes until the sweet potatoes become tender and start to caramelize.

        Incorporate Hatch Chilies: Once the sweet potatoes are almost done, add the diced Hatch green chilies to the mixture. Stir well and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

          Adjust Seasoning: Taste the hash and adjust seasonings if needed. If you like a spicier kick, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper.

            Cook Eggs (Optional): If you're adding eggs, you can either fry them in a separate pan or create small wells in the hash and crack the eggs directly into those wells. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the eggs are set to your liking.

              Serve and Garnish: Once everything is cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Serve the hash warm, garnished with fresh cilantro for an added burst of flavor and freshness.
