Chef Jonathan Poyourow, an assistant professor at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, R.I., created a potato hash that brings lamb to the breakfast menu. Multihued bell peppers, red onions, tomatoes and a sunny side-up egg add bright spots of color.

Ingredients

4 lb. red potatoes, cut into 1-in. cubes

1½ cups olive oil

4 lb. ground lamb

¼ cup fresh lemon juice

3 red onions, julienned

1 green bell pepper, julienned

1 red bell pepper, julienned

¼ cup kosher salt

¼ cup ground black pepper

3 tbsp. butter

12 eggs

1¼ lb. goat cheese, crumbled

½ cup chopped fresh parsley

½ cup finely diced tomatoes

2 tbsp. grated lemon zest

Steps

1. In medium saucepan, combine potatoes and enough cold water to cover. Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes. Drain potatoes; set aside to cool.

2. In very large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add ground lamb; saute until almost fully cooked. Remove lamb from skillet; drain excess liquid.
