Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Crusty bread, for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell peppers and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Stir in garlic, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in crushed tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow flavors to meld.
  4. Using a spoon, create 6 wells in the tomato sauce. Crack one egg into each well.
  5. Cover the skillet and cook on low heat for 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Alternatively, you can place the skillet in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley.
  7. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping.

Notes

  • Adjust spice levels to your preference.
  • For a richer flavor, add a pinch of sugar to the tomato sauce.
  • You can add other vegetables like spinach or zucchini to the sauce.
