05 -
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
06 -
1/2 red bell pepper, diced

1 to 2 teaspoons all-purpose seasoning blend

1/2 to 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning

1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

4 to 6 large eggs

Salt and black pepper, to season eggs

13 -
Chili crisp oil, for topping (optional)

# Steps:
01 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped bacon and cook until crisp. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of rendered fat in the skillet.
02 -
Add sliced and quartered kielbasa sausage to the skillet and sauté until browned and crispy around the edges. Remove from skillet and set aside.
03 -
Microwave diced potatoes on high for 5 minutes to soften. Add to skillet and cook over medium heat for approximately 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes begin to crisp.
04 -
Mix in diced onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper. Sprinkle with all-purpose seasoning blend, Creole seasoning, and black pepper. Continue cooking until potatoes are crispy outside and tender inside.
05 -
Return cooked bacon and kielbasa to the pan, stirring to combine with vegetables.
06 -
Create wells in the skillet mixture. Crack eggs into wells and season lightly with salt and pepper. Add a small amount of bacon grease if needed to prevent sticking.
07 -
Distribute shredded cheese evenly over the skillet. Cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until eggs are set to desired doneness and cheese has melted. Top with chili crisp oil if desired and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
# Notes:

Precooking potatoes in the microwave ensures a crisp exterior while reducing skillet time.
