Ingredients
  

4 medium potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold), diced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups Hatch green chilies, roasted, peeled, and chopped (or canned Hatch chilies)

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large eggs (optional for serving)

Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Sliced avocado, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Potatoes: Place the diced potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté the Base: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Combine Vegetables: Add the partially cooked potatoes, diced red bell pepper, and chopped Hatch green chilies to the skillet. Sprinkle in the ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

        Cook the Hash: Increase the heat to medium-high and allow everything to fry for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. Adjust seasonings as necessary.

          Cook Eggs (Optional): If you’re serving the hash topped with eggs, in a separate pan, fry or poach the eggs to your preferred doneness.

            Assemble and Serve: Serve the hash hot, topped with fried or poached eggs if desired. Garnish with fresh cilantro and slices of avocado for an extra creamy touch. Enjoy your spicy and hearty Hatch Chili Hash!
