Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add crookneck or yellow squash, zucchini, and tomatoes. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir in capers. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are just tender.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in 4 large fresh basil leaves, chiffonaded, and bocconcini.
- Divide the vegetable mixture between two ramekins.
- Crack two eggs into each ramekin, taking care not to break the yolks.
- Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake until the whites are almost cooked, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle each serving with 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 2 additional minutes, or until the white are cooked and the yolks are still soft.
- Sprinkle each serving with the remaining basil. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a vegetarian-friendly dish, be sure to use Parmesan cheese made with vegetable rennet, not calf rennet. If you can't find it, substitute with another vegetarian-friendly cheese or omit it.
