Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 cups potatoes (peeled and diced)
- 0.5 pound breakfast sausage (crumbled or chopped)
- 0.5 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender.
Add the crumbled breakfast sausage to the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and fully cooked.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the cooked potatoes and sausage mixture.
Pour the whisked egg mixture over the skillet, ensuring it evenly coats the ingredients.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the eggs, spreading it out evenly.
Top with pepperoni slices, arranging them evenly across the surface.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted.
Optionally, transfer the skillet to a preheated oven under the broiler for 1–2 minutes to lightly brown the cheese (ensure your skillet is oven-safe!).
Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool for 2–3 minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onions and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if desired.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Breakfast Pizza Skillet!
