To create the perfect bite-sized mini roasted potato and egg skillets, it all starts with the potatoes. Selecting the right potatoes is crucial; I recommend using baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes for their creamy texture and natural sweetness. Begin by washing them thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Once cleaned, cut the potatoes into uniform pieces, ideally quarters or halves, depending on their size. This ensures even seasoning and cooking, allowing each piece to roast to golden perfection.

Ingredients
  

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large eggs

2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)

1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella works best)

Sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional, for serving)

Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Potatoes: In a mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.

      Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through for even cooking.

        Prepare Skillet: In a small cast-iron skillet or individual oven-safe ramekins, place a portion of the roasted potatoes as the base.

          Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the roasted potatoes in each skillet, allowing it to melt during the next step.

            Cook Eggs: Carefully crack an egg on top of the cheese layer in each skillet. Use a spoon to create a small indentation if necessary to hold the egg.

              Bake Eggs: Return the skillets to the oven and bake for an additional 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set while the yolk remains slightly runny, or cook to your desired doneness.

                Garnish: Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Sprinkle with fresh chives and optional parsley for an extra touch.

                  Serve: Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top, if desired.
