One Skillet Chipotle Flatbread with Potatoes and Eggs

With one skillet and handful of ingredients, you can make the best breakfast or brunch recipe! This spicy and flavorful breakfast is made up naan bread, a creamy chipotle sauce, thinly sliced potatoes, melty cheddar cheese, fluffy scrambled eggs and a jalapeno and tomato pico de gallo. It will surely be a crowd pleaser if you want to share. But you might be wanting to enjoy this one skillet chipotle flatbread with potatoes and eggs all to yourself because it’s so good!

I got the inspiration for this potato flatbread recipe after my making my potato, pesto and goat cheese flatbread! I took the same idea of placing skillet fried sliced potatoes and layering them onto naan bread. But this time, I made the recipe into a spicy and savory breakfast. And just like my previous potato flatbread, this one did not disappoint!

Why we love this breakfast flatbread

Just as the title of this recipe says, this is a one skillet wonder! Everything from the potatoes, eggs to the flatbread can be done in the same skillet, saving you time on washing dishes later! More time to enjoy the food, less time standing at the kitchen sink!

The flatbread itself gets seasoned and toasty in the skillet. This brings the perfect texture as well as flavor to each bite! Just a little olive oil, salt and garlic powder go a long way in elevating the naan to the next level.

This breakfast and brunch recipe packs some protein to help keep you full longer. Half of this savory breakfast packs about 35 grams of protein to start your day off right.

The best part? This one skillet chipotle flatbread with potatoes and eggs is full of flavor! It is spicy and smokey from the chipotle sauce, while the eggs are fluffy. And the tomato and jalapeno pico on top adds a nice kick of flavor to each bite. You can make this meal more or less spicy depending on how many chipotles peppers you use, and how much jalapeno you add! Personalize the dish to your personal taste!

Tips and tricks when making this one skillet chipotle flatbread with potatoes and eggs

Before you slice those potatoes and whish the eggs, here are some tips and tricks for success!

  1. Make sure you slice your potatoes nice and thin. I use my mandoline slicer on the thinnest setting. This will allow your potatoes to cook all the way through in the skillet. If cut them too thick, you run the risk of getting burnt, underdone potatoes.
  2. Have the oil in the skillet hot before adding the potatoes! They should not take long to cook on each side if your skillet is ready to go! You also have to cook the potato slices in two batches to be sure you do not overcrowd the pan.
  3. You can make the chipotle sauce and tomato jalapeno pico in advance to save time! Just store it in the fridge until you are ready to assemble the flatbread.
  4. You will probably need to give your skillet a quick wipe down after you cook the eggs before you add the naan bread!
  5. Once you have assembled the flatbread, be sure to cover the skillet with lid. You want to achieve two things with this! Get the bottom of the naan bread a little toasty, but not burnt, while melting the cheddar cheese! Keep an eye on the bottom of the naan for this last step!
