Equipment

  • Cast iron pan or large skillet

Ingredients
 

  • 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 red bell peppers seeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 ½ tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • Pinch of cayenne or to taste
  • 1 28 oz can fire-roasted, diced tomatoes with juices
  • Salt and pepper
  • 6 large eggs

Garnish

  • Feta cheese crumbled
  • Chopped cilantro and/or parsley

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add bell peppers and onion. Saute until starting to brown for about 5-10 minutes.
  • Add garlic and cook until tender, 1-2 minutes; stir in cumin, paprika, and cayenne. Cook 1 minute then add tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Turn down heat and simmer until tomatoes have thickened, about 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Using the back of a large spoon, make a well near the side of the pan and break an egg gently into it. Repeat with remaining eggs, working around the pan. Season eggs with a little salt, cover with lid and cook until eggs are set about 7-10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with cilantro and/or parsley and feta. Enjoy!
