Directions

1. Remove seeds from bell peppers and chop. Chop jalapeños and set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers, jalapeños, onion, garlic, cumin, and 3/4 tsp of the salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent, about 7 minutes.
3. Add the tomato paste and mix well. Add canned tomatoes with their liquid and 1/2 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a low boil, then simmer for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
4. Using the back of a large spoon, make divots in the tomato sauce for the eggs. Carefully crack each egg into each space without stirring.
5. Cover the skillet and simmer for about 8 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your preference. Sprinkle eggs with the remaining salt, freshly ground pepper, and chopped fresh parsley.
