HASH BROWN OMELET



Hash Brown Omelet image

We took the classic diner breakfast of an omelet and hash browns and combined them into a no-fuss dish that's both hearty and satisfying. Frozen shredded hash browns are browned in a skillet until golden and crisp, then cooked directly with the eggs for crusty potatoes in every bite. We also loaded the inside of the omelet with sautéed bell peppers, Canadian bacon, tomatoes and melty cheese and topped the whole thing with avocado slices for the ultimate diner-style meal you can easily make at home.

Time 25m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely diced green bell peppers
1/4 cup finely diced Canadian bacon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups frozen shredded hash browns (about 5 ounces; do not thaw)
2 large eggs
2 slices American cheese
1/4 cup finely diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon thinly sliced scallions
1/2 ripe avocado, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers, Canadian bacon, a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are just tender and the bacon begins to brown in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the veggies to a small bowl, then return the skillet to the heat.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the same skillet, swirling the pan to evenly coat. Add the shredded hash browns in a single layer, pressing them down with the back of a heatproof spatula. Cook, undisturbed, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Flip the hash browns over, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil around the edge of the skillet, then continue to cook until the other side is golden, 4 to 5 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low. Break apart the hash browns slightly, then pour the eggs over top in an even layer. Cook until the eggs are just set, about 1 minute. Lay the cheese on one side of the omelet, then sprinkle over the reserved peppers and bacon, the tomatoes and scallions. Continue to cook until the cheese is just melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Fold the omelet in half over the filling like a book, then slide onto a plate. Top with the sliced avocado and serve immediately.

Tips for Making a Perfect Hash Brown Omelet:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Russet potatoes are the best choice for hash browns, as they have a high starch content that makes them crispy when cooked.
  • Shred the potatoes finely. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the hash browns with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help bring out their flavor.
  • Cook the hash browns in a hot skillet with plenty of butter or oil. This will help them get crispy.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the hash browns will steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the hash browns until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
  • Transfer the hash browns to a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess grease.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Heat a little butter or oil in the same skillet you used to cook the hash browns.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook over medium heat. Lift the edges of the omelet as it cooks and tilt the skillet to allow the uncooked egg to flow to the bottom.
  • When the omelet is almost set, spoon the hash browns over one half of the omelet.
  • Fold the other half of the omelet over the hash browns.
  • Serve the omelet immediately, garnished with your favorite toppings.

The hash brown omelet is a delicious and hearty breakfast that is easy to make. By following these tips, you can make a perfect hash brown omelet every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give this recipe a try!
