Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked turkey or chicken (shredded or diced)
• 2 medium Sweet potatoes (peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes)
• 1 small Onion (diced)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 medium Red bell pepper (diced)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
• 4 large Eggs (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for 5–6 minutes, or until they are just fork-tender but not mushy. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3–4 minutes, or until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 4

Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the skillet, along with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are lightly browned and crispy on the edges.

Step 5

Stir in the shredded or diced turkey or chicken, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the turkey or chicken is heated through and well-coated in the seasoning.

Step 6

Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed.

Step 7

If desired, fry eggs separately to serve on top of the hash. Cook them sunny-side up, over-easy, or to your preferred level of doneness.

Step 8

Serve the hash warm, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if using. Top with the cooked eggs if desired.
