Ingredients

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced

1 1/2 pounds baby red potatoes

Kosher salt

8 ounces shishito peppers, stemmed and halved crosswise

8 ounces thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Freshly ground pepper

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, plus more for topping

2 to 3 links fresh chorizo (about 9 ounces total), casings removed

4 large eggs

1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

  1. Position racks in the upper third and middle of the oven; preheat the broiler. Whisk the vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until dissolved. Stir in the red onion and set aside.
  2. Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, toss the shishitos and asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a big pinch each of salt and pepper on a baking sheet. 
  4. Drain the potatoes and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and the paprika; season with salt and pepper. Spread out on a second baking sheet and smash the potatoes using the bottom of a glass. Broil the potatoes on the upper oven rack and the shishitos and asparagus on the middle rack until the potatoes are browned and the shishitos and asparagus are tender, 10 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, cook the chorizo in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, 5 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add 4 eggs to the skillet and cook until the whites are set, 3 to 4 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Divide the potatoes, shishitos and asparagus among plates. Top with the chorizo, red onion (drained) and fried eggs. Sprinkle with the parsley and paprika.

Made the recipe with no exceptions.  The shishito peppers were difficult to find but I did it, they added nothing that a green pepper would have done, so a waste of tine looking for them.  Also, they were a pain to get all the seeds out.  Not keen on this recipes as there was major clean up as you use too many pots, pans and cookie sheet, not to mention the bowls to toss things in.
