  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, whole
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • ¼ tsp chili powder
  • 1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • salt and pepper taste
  • 1 bunch parsley
  • Pita bread (on the side)
Instructions
  1. Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion and cook for 5 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
  2. Add garlic and spices and cook an additional minute.
  3. Pour the can of tomatoes and juice into the pan. Using a large spoon, break down the tomatoes to create a chunky sauce.
  4. Season with salt and pepper and raise the heat until the sauce begins to simmer.
  5. Use a large spoon to make small wells in the sauce and crack the eggs into each well. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the eggs are done to your liking. Cover the pan to cook the eggs faster.
