Creating your Hash Browns & Eggs Skillet can be simple by following these clear steps:

1. Prepare the Potatoes: Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a paper towel.
2. Heat the Skillet: In a large non-stick skillet, add olive oil over medium heat. Allow the oil to heat up.
3. Cook the Hash Browns: Add the grated potatoes to the skillet and spread them into an even layer. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes without stirring until the bottom is golden brown.
4. Add Veggies: Sprinkle the chopped onion and diced bell pepper over the potatoes. Gently stir to incorporate, then press them into the potatoes for even cooking.
5. Continue Cooking: Let it cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables soften and the hash browns are crisp.

6. Create Wells for Eggs: Using a spatula, make four small wells in the hash browns. Crack an egg into each well. Season the eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Cover the skillet with a lid to allow the eggs to cook through for about 5-10 minutes, depending on how runny you like your yolks.
8. Cook to Your Preference: If you prefer firmer eggs, cook them longer. Alternatively, if you like runny yolks, cook it for a shorter period.
9. Garnish: Once cooked, remove from heat and sprinkle fresh herbs on top for added flavor and color.
10. Serve: Using a spatula, portion out slices of the hash brown and egg mixture, placing each on a plate.
