- 2 medium Yukon gold potatoes, cut into wedges
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 cup fresh spinach or kale, chopped
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil for greens
- 2 large eggs
- Optional: sesame seeds or feta crumbles for garnish
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add potato wedges, season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Cook for 12–15 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy on the edges. Set aside.
- In the same pan, add a bit of butter or oil. Sauté the chopped greens for 2–3 minutes until just wilted. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- In a separate nonstick skillet, cook the eggs sunny-side-up until whites are set but yolks remain runny.
- Plate the eggs alongside the crispy potatoes and sautéed greens.
- Garnish with optional sesame seeds or feta crumbles. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Parboil potatoes for 5 minutes before pan-frying for even crispier results.
- Use any greens you have on hand—chard, spinach, kale, or arugula all work well.
- Top with hot sauce or avocado slices for an extra kick or creaminess.
