Sunday Morning Goulash


Cheers to Dave, the breakfast guy. I have long since given up on breakfast. Something always goes awry, the eggs are overcooked, the bacon is burned, the hash browns are soggy. It's simply not my department. Dave on the other hand cooks breakfast like a champion. I inherited a skillet last night. Dinner at Bill and April's, it came to pass that they had two of the exact same skillet. April had been borrowing my 9x12 in casserole pan for quite sometime now. In what I consider a fair exchange, I offered her my 9x12 for her extra skillet. This morning was the first test and it was one of the best breakfasts I have had in quite some time.

Dave's Goulash
Serves 2

2 tbsp butter
2 small russet potatoes, cubed
1/2 onion, chopped
2 eggs
4 tbsp buttermilk or cream
1/2 lb cooked ground turkey
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Sour cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Heat skillet over medium heat until warm. Melt butter in skillet and add potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add onions and cook until soft, 10 minutes longer. Meanwhile, whisk eggs with buttermilk in a bowl. Straighten onions and potatoes so they form a slight bowl in the pan. Pour egg mixture into the middle of the onions and potatoes. Top with ground turkey.

Turn on oven broiler and put the skillet in the oven. Bake for 5-7 minutes until eggs are almost cooked through. Sprinkle cheese on top and broil for an additional 3 minutes until cheese is melted. Remove pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and top with sour cream. Serve immediately.
