  1. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add in onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno and saute 5 to 7 minutes until onions are translucent.
  2. Add in garlic, cumin, and paprika and toast for 1 minute.
  3. Stir in diced tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low. Continue at a simmer for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees while you wait.
  4. Create 6 little nests in the tomato mixture to hold the eggs. Crack eggs into prepared holes.

  • You can also add 1/4 cup of crumbled feta cheese on top with the cilantro as a variation.
