Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 large large eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 14 ounces can diced tomatoes Including juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
Instructions
Preparation
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and sauté until it’s translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute. Add the cumin and paprika. Cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes (juice included!), salt, and pepper. Let this simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Create little indentations in the sauce and crack an egg into each. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the whites are set.
- Once the eggs are cooked to perfection, sprinkle with fresh parsley or cilantro.
Notes
If the sauce looks too chunky, add a splash of water or broth. For a Mediterranean twist, consider adding feta cheese or olives before serving.
