Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and chorizo and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden brown.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium then add the tomatoes, red wine, and garlic to the pan and cook until it becomes a thick sauce, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Take the pan off of the element and reduce the heat to low. Using your spatula, create four little wells in the tomato chorizo sauce for your eggs to sit in. Carefully crack the eggs into the wells then return the pan to the element and cook the eggs, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes, or until the whites are cooked through and the yolks are still runny. Remove the skillet from the heat, season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then scatter the olives, minced parsley, and feta over the top.

Notes

  • In this recipe, we use cured (dried) chorizo sausage. This is the type of chorizo that you can slice and eat. It usually comes wrapped tightly in a thin skin. Sometimes it is edible, but other times it is very chewy. If in doubt, remove the skin.
  • If you have some fresh chorizo sausage on hand, you can still make this recipe. Simply remove the casing before you crumble and cook it. Also, make sure that it is fully cooked before you add the tomatoes.
