Ingredients:
– 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
– 1 red onion, diced
– 1 red bell pepper, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 4 large eggs
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the sweet potato and chickpeas: In a large bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes, chickpeas, red onion, and red bell pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well coated.
3. Roast the vegetables: Spread the mixture evenly on a large baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through the cooking time.
4. Prepare the poached eggs: While the vegetables are roasting, bring a medium pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of vinegar to the water (this helps the eggs hold their shape). Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Carefully slide each egg into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes for runny yolks or 5-6 minutes for firmer yolks. Use a slotted spoon to remove the poached eggs from the water and set them on a plate lined with paper towels.
5. Combine and serve: Once the sweet potato and chickpea mixture is done roasting, remove it from the oven. Divide the mixture onto four serving plates. Top each plate with a poached egg, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
6. Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your Hearty Sweet Potato and Chickpea Hash with Poached Eggs while it’s warm and delicious.
