Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust rack to top position (top and middle for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Core, deseed, and dice bell pepper into ½-inch pieces. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Mince a wedge or two until you have 1 Tbsp (2 Tbsp for 4); place in a medium bowl and set aside.
- Toss potatoes, bell pepper, and onion wedges on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil. (For 4 servings, divide between 2 sheets.) Season with Southwest Spice, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack (top and middle racks for 4) until potatoes are golden brown and softened and bell pepper and onion are lightly charred at the edges, 25-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, finely dice tomato. Roughly chop cilantro. Mince jalapeño, removing ribs and seeds for less heat. Halve lime. To bowl with minced onion, add tomato, half the cilantro, and jalapeño to taste. Add juice from half the lime, ¼ tsp sugar (½ tsp for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper; stir to combine.
- When veggies have about 5 minutes left, heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Crack eggs into pan and season with salt and pepper. Fry eggs to preference. When eggs have about 1 minute left, sprinkle each with Mexican cheese; cover pan to melt cheese. Remove pan from heat.
- Once veggies are done, top with juice from remaining lime to taste. Carefully toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide potato hash between plates; top with fried eggs, pico de gallo, and smoky red pepper crema. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro if desired and serve.

For extra crispy potatoes, spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet and avoid overcrowding.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño to your heat preference; remove seeds and ribs for a milder pico.
If you don’t have Southwest Spice Blend, substitute with a mix of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika.
FAQ
Can I use a different type of potato?
Yes, you can substitute Yukon Gold potatoes with Russet or red potatoes. Just cut them into similar-sized pieces and adjust roasting time as needed.
How do I make the smoky red pepper crema?
The smoky red pepper crema is a prepared ingredient. If you want to make your own, blend roasted red peppers with sour cream or Greek yogurt, a pinch of smoked paprika, and salt to taste.
Can I make this dish vegetarian?
Yes, this recipe is already vegetarian. For a vegan version, omit the eggs and cheese, and use a plant-based crema.
