Instructions

Pat steak dry and season generously with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, chili powder, and minced garlic. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and let marinate for 10–15 minutes (optional but recommended).
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Add diced potatoes and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp. Add onions and bell peppers and cook another 5 minutes until softened. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
In the same skillet, sear steak for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (or longer to desired doneness). Remove from heat, rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
In a separate pan, cook eggs to your preference — fried, scrambled, or poached.
Assemble plates: start with a layer of crispy potatoes, then top with steak slices, eggs, shredded cheese, and avocado.
Garnish with parsley or green onions and drizzle with hot sauce or salsa if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy a loaded, energy-boosting brunch!

Notes

Swap steak for grilled chicken or tofu for a lighter variation.
Add sautéed spinach or mushrooms for extra nutrients.
To save time, use pre-cooked breakfast potatoes or hash browns.
For meal prep, store components separately and assemble when ready to serve.
