Instructions
Cook the bacon in a large, oven-proof skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat. When the bacon is chewy-crisp, remove it with a slotted spoon and transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate.
Drain all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan. Add the potatoes to the pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until golden brown on all sides, stirring occasionally. Add the bell pepper and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, until soft. Add the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and stir to coat. Fold in the bacon.
Spread the mixture out in the pan and, using the back of a spoon, make 4 indents into the hash. Crack one egg into each indent. Season the tops of the eggs with salt and black pepper
Transfer the pan to the oven and cook until the egg whites are cooked and the yolk is runny (or cooked to your liking), and the potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
