Personal Shopper

• 1 tablespoon bacon fat
• 1 cup ham
• 0.5 cup red onion
• 0.33 cup green pepper
• 1 clove garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 8 medium cooked redskin potatoes
• 1 cup extra sharp white cheddar cheese
• salt
• black pepper

Steps

1. Preheat broiler and move the rack to the highest position.
2. In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet melt bacon fat over medium heat.
3. Once hot, add in the ham and cook until crispy and golden, about 6 minutes, before transferring it to a small dish.
4. Add the onion and pepper to the skillet, stir and cook for 5 minutes or until just starting to soften.
5. Add in garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
6. Add the potatoes and ham to the skillet and gently mix them into the onions and peppers until the potatoes are heated through.
7. Give the pan a shake to settle everything into an even layer.
8. Top with cheese and slide under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, watching carefully so it does not burn.
9. Serve with eggs cooked how you prefer and buttered slices of toast.
