Chef's tip: Cut potatoes into small cubes so they cook through in the oven without needing to boil first.

Chef's tip: If the egg runs, make a small well in the mixture before cracking it in to keep it contained.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Cut chicken breast into 2 cm cubes, potatoes into 1.5 cm cubes, onion into thin slices, and bell pepper into 1 cm strips. Mince garlic.

    ~10 min
  2. 2

    In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add chicken cubes and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

    ~7 min
  3. 3

    Add potatoes and bell pepper to the skillet. Pour in canned tomatoes and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer.

    ~3 min
  4. 4

    Transfer skillet to the oven. Bake until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 74°C/165°F), about 20 minutes.

    ~20 min
  5. 5

    Remove skillet from oven. Sprinkle cheddar evenly over the top. Crack egg onto the center. Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted and egg white is set, about 5 minutes.
