Instructions

1

Dice the onion and bell pepper. Mince the garlic. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

2

Saute the onion and bell pepper for 5-6 minutes until softened. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika, and cayenne. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

3

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season with salt. Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

4

Make 6 small wells in the sauce with the back of a spoon. Crack an egg into each well.

Tip: Crack eggs into a small bowl first to avoid shell fragments in the sauce.

5

Cover the skillet and cook on medium-low for 6-8 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

6

Remove from heat, sprinkle with crumbled feta and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping.
