1

Assemble all the ingredients.
2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; keep most of the bacon fat in the skillet.
3

Crumble the bacon and set it aside.
4

Lower the heat to medium. Cook and stir the onion in the reserved bacon fat until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes; toss to coat evenly in the bacon fat. Pour in the water and cover the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
5

Stir in the green onions, garlic, and paprika. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Use a wooden spoon to make 4 wells in the potato mixture, exposing the bottom of the skillet.
6

Crack an egg into each well; season with salt and pepper.
7

Sprinkle the Cheddar cheese and bacon over the entire skillet.
8

Cover and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks remain runny, about 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
