Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons - olive oil
  • 1 - onion
  • 2 cloves - garlic
  • 1 - red, orange or yellow bell pepper
  • ½ tsp - kosher salt
  • 1 tsp - smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp - cumin
  • ½ tsp - ground coriander
  • 3 tablespoons - tomato paste
  • 1 can - crushed tomatoes
  • ¼ cup - fresh cilantro or parsley
  • 4 - eggs
  • ¼ cup - feta cheese
  • bread or pita
  • avocado

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes or until becoming translucent. Add the bell pepper, garlic and salt and continue sautéing for 3 more minutes or until vegetables have softened.
  2. Add the smoked paprika, cumin and coriander and sauté for 1 minute to toast the herbs. Add the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes and stir the sauce until combined. Simmer the sauce over medium low for 15 minutes to meld the flavors.
  3. Using the back of a large spoon make 4 indents spaced out in the sauce and gently crack eggs into these “wells”. Cook the eggs and sauce for 5-6 minutes or until the whites are set and the eggs yolks are still jiggly. If you want your egg yolks fully cooked through cook for a total of 8-9 minutes.
  4. Serve in bowls with toast and sliced avocado if desired or eat right out of the skillet like we do.
