Begin by warming a sizable nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray, then introduce the pancetta. Sauté until it achieves a golden hue, which should take approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Once done, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
Next, incorporate the potatoes along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Allow them to cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until they develop a nice browning. After that, turn the potatoes, add in the shallots, and continue cooking until the potatoes turn golden brown and the shallots become caramelized, stirring occasionally for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Introduce the asparagus to the skillet, then cover it with a lid or a piece of foil. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender-crisp. Once finished, remove the cover, taste for seasoning, and adjust the salt if necessary. Finally, return the cooked pancetta to the skillet.
While the asparagus is cooking, prepare the eggs according to your preference. Serve the hash immediately, topped with the freshly cooked egg.
