Ingredients
Directions
- Remove seeds from bell peppers and chop. Chop jalepenos. Set aside.
- Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers, jalapeños, onion, garlic, cumin, and 3/4 tsp of the salt. Cook while stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent, about 7 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and mix well. Add canned tomatoes and their liquid plus 1/2 c water. Bring the mixture to a low boil. Simmer for about 7 minutes, stirring occasional, until sauce has thickened.
- Using the back of a large spoon, make divots in the tomato sauce for the eggs. Carefully crack each egg into each space. Do not stir.
- Cover skillet and simmer for about 8 minutes or until eggs are done to your preference. Sprinkle eggs with remaining salt, freshly ground pepper, and chopped fresh cilantro.
