A high-protein, carnivore-friendly Mexican-inspired breakfast skillet with ground beef, eggs, and cheese, cooked in butter and finished with warm spices.
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the beef tallow or butter.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook for 6-8 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Season the beef with salt, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes to toast the spices lightly.
Spread the seasoned beef evenly across the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Create four small wells in the beef mixture and add the butter in small pieces around the skillet.
Crack one egg into each well, keeping the yolks intact.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your preferred doneness.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top, cover again, and cook for 1-2 more minutes until the cheese melts.
Remove from heat, let rest for 1 minute, then divide the skillet into two portions and serve hot.
