Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound 90% lean ground pork
  • 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoky paprika
  • 2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 0.25 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 6 cups shredded brussels sprouts
  • 0.25 cup chopped onion
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Heat a large cast iron or heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat, spray with oil and cook the meat, breaking it up into small pieces.
  • Combine spices in a small bowl.
  • Add garlic, season with spices and vinegar, and cook until browned and no longer pink in the middle, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Set the cooked pork mixture aside on a plate.
  • Add the shredded brussels sprouts and chopped onion to the same skillet. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the brussels sprouts start to brown and are tender-crisp, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Return the cooked pork to the skillet and mix everything together. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes to heat through.
  • In a separate nonstick skillet, heat and spray with oil. Once hot, cook the eggs, covered, until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes.
