Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 green bell pepper sliced
- 3 garlic minced, cloves
- 4 tomato diced (or or 2-14 oz cans, lightly drained
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp chili powder
- 4 egg
Instructions
- In a large cast iron skillet or sauté pan with a lid, heat oil over medium high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add the peppers and garlic, and sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt, and chili powder. Mix well and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and continue to simmer, uncovered, 10-15 minutes until the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency. (Taste the sauce at this point and adjust for salt and spice, as desired.)
- Using the back of a spoon, make four craters in the mixture, large enough to hold an egg. Crack one egg into each of the craters.
- Cover the skillet and simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the eggs have set.
- Serve immediately with crusty bread or pita.
