- 1/4 cup water
- 2 green onions sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 eggs beaten

Instructions
- Place bacon in a large cast iron skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Drain on paper towels; reserve most of the bacon fat in skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir onions until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add potatoes; toss to coat evenly in bacon fat.

- Season with salt and pepper.
- Make 4 wells in the potato mixture using a wooden spoon, revealing the bottom of the skillet. Pour eggs over the mixture and cook until set; about 5 minutes.
