Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 2 cans diced tomatoes
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, sliced
- 1½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ cup feta crumbles
- cilantro or parsley
- 4 pita breads, warmed
From your pantry: 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp cumin, pinch of sugar, salt.
Instructions
- Cook the onion and pepper in the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium until soft, 7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, paprika and cumin for 1 minute, then the tomatoes, sugar and ½ tsp salt. Simmer until thick, 10 minutes.
- Make 6 wells with a spoon and crack an egg into each. Season the eggs.
- Cover and cook on medium-low until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Scatter with feta and herbs and serve straight from the pan with warm pita.
Tip: Crack each egg into a small cup first so a broken yolk doesn't end up in the pan.
