Ingredients

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Toasted pita bread
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 8 basil leaves, chopped
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (or veggie broth if vegetarian)
  • 2 14 ounce cans diced tomatoes with their juices
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced or grated
  • 2 jalapenos, seeded and diced
  • 1 Anaheim pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped

Directions

Recipe adapted from Breakfast for Dinner.

  1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the onions and peppers and saute, stirring occasionally, until they're tender and starting to brown. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes and all the juice, broth, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer then lower heat and continue to simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until the mixture is thickened.
  2. Crack the eggs into the sauce. Cover and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until desired doneness. I like to take them off when the whites are just set, but the yolks are still very runny. But you can continue to cook until the yolks are cooked through as well if desired. Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle with parsley, basil, and feta. Serve warm with pita bread.
