Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked corned beef, diced
- 2 cups diced potatoes
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a large baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced potatoes with a little oil until they start to become golden and crispy, approximately 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the diced corned beef to the skillet and cook together with the potatoes for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating and browning.
- Transfer the corned beef and potato mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom of the dish.
- Create four small wells or indentations in the hash mixture using the back of a spoon.
- Carefully crack one egg into each well, ensuring the yolks remain intact.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the entire dish, covering the hash and eggs.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to allow the dish to set.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions if desired, and serve hot directly from the baking dish.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: If you're short on time in the morning, consider prepping the corned beef and potatoes the night before. Just sauté them and store them in the fridge, then assemble and bake in the morning for a quick breakfast.
- Customize Your Cheese: While shredded cheese is a must, feel free to mix it up! Try using a blend of cheddar, Monterey Jack, or even pepper jack for a spicy kick.
- Perfect Egg Yolk: For runny yolks, keep an eye on the baking time. Start checking around the 12-minute mark. If you prefer firmer yolks, leave them in a bit longer.
- Add Veggies: Boost the nutrition and flavor by adding diced bell peppers, onions, or even spinach to the hash mixture. Just sauté them along with the potatoes.
- Garnish for Flavor: Don’t skip the garnish! Fresh parsley or green onions not only add a pop of color but also enhance the dish's flavor profile.
- Serving Suggestions: Pair your Cheesy Corned Beef Hash Baked Eggs with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for a balanced meal.
