Ingredients

  • 3 tbs extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large white onion thinly sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 3 cups fresh tomatoes torn (see directions below), or 1 28 oz can whole tomatoes, torn
  • 3-4 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprrika optional
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Red pepper flakes to taste
  • 4 oz feta or goat cheese crumbled
  • 6 large eggs
  • Cilantro hot sauce, or red pepper flakes to garnish
  • Bread for serving sourdough or rye work great!

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Heat oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and bell pepper and cook until soft and slightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and cook 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in cumin, paprika, and red pepper flakes, and cook 1 minute.
  4. Pour in tomatoes and season with & pepper, then simmer until tomatoes have thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in crumbled feta.
  5. Gently crack eggs into skillet over tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until eggs are just set, 7 to 10 minutes.
  6. If you're serving this dish with toast (which I recommend) toast up some bread during the last 5 minutes of the eggs cooking.
  7. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with red pepper flakes or hot sauce if desired!

Modifications

  • Don't eat dairy? Substitute in 1/2 cup coconut cream
  • Want a vegan dish? Top with avocado instead of eggs!
  • In a hurry? Cut down your prep time by using canned tomatoes.
