HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

02

Add 1/2 cup of chopped onion and 1/2 cup of chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

03

Stir in 1 minced garlic clove and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.

04

Pour in 1 can of undrained diced tomatoes. Add 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon of cumin. Stir well and bring the sauce to a simmer.

05

Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

06

Carefully crack 4 large eggs directly into the simmering sauce, spacing them evenly. Season the eggs with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper.

07

Cover the skillet and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency.

08

Serve immediately, optionally garnished with fresh cilantro or avocado slices.

Easy Substitutions

Feel free to use fire-roasted diced tomatoes for a smoky flavor. If you don't have bell pepper, you can use a small jalapeño for a spicier alternative. For a vegetarian option, add 1/2 cup of black beans to the sauce.
