HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

02

Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

03

Stir in the diced tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.

04

Carefully create four small wells in the tomato sauce using the back of a spoon. Crack one egg into each well.

05

Arrange the sliced halloumi cheese around the eggs in the skillet.

06

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency. The halloumi should be golden brown.

07

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving immediately.

Chef's Tips

For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the tomato sauce along with the oregano. This dish is delicious served with crusty bread for dipping into the flavorful sauce and runny yolks.

Easy Substitutions

Feta cheese can be used in place of halloumi, though it will melt more into the sauce rather than hold its shape. For added greens, wilt a handful of fresh spinach into the tomato sauce before adding the eggs.
