Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 14 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 slices crusty bread (for serving)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for another 4-5 minutes until softened.
Mix in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to break down.
Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes and stir to combine.
Season the sauce with smoked paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Using a spoon, make small wells in the sauce and carefully crack one egg into each well.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Cook longer if you prefer firmer yolks.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately with slices of crusty bread for dipping.
