Cast Iron Southwest Skillet Breakfast
- 1/2 onion, sliced
- 1 poblano pepper, cleaned and diced
- 1 potato in large cubes
- 6 strips of bacon, quartered
- 8 eggs
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 kosher salt
- 1 crushed black pepper
- 3 tbsp half and half
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Place a seasoned cast iron skillet on the middle rack to heat.
- I like to season with bacon grease.
- Thoroughly beat the half and half with the eggs in a bowl.
- Bring a small pot of water to boil.
- Add potato chunks, which should be about an inch cubed.
- Boil for 5-10 minutes.
- They should not be fully cooked when you drain them.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and place it on the stovetop on low heat.
- Add the potatoes and the bacon.
- Stir and unstick frequently.
- Add some kosher salt and crack in some pepper.
- Allow the potatoes to brown and crispen.
- This should take about 5 minutes.
- Throw in the sliced onion and poblano peppers.
- Stir for about 5 more minutes.
- Remove the skillet from heat entirely.
- Add the egg mixture and stir continuously, mixing the cooking egg with the vegetables.
- When the egg is halfway cooked, add more salt and pepper, stir it in quickly.
- Quickly sprinkle the cheese over the top, and return to the oven for maybe 1 minute until the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and serve.
