  • •1 teaspoon salt
  • •1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. 1Melt butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add diced potatoes, cooking for 8-10 minutes until golden and tender, stirring occasionally.
  2. 2Add diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  3. 3Stir in the cooked sausage and distribute evenly throughout the skillet.
  4. 4In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper, then pour the mixture over the skillet contents.
  5. 5Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring gently until eggs begin to set.

💡 Start potatoes before eggs in a breakfast skillet and let cut surfaces brown; eggs cook too quickly to wait for pale, firm potatoes.
