1
Prepare the Base
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, sautéing until they are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
2
Add Tomatoes
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the tomatoes start to break down and release their juices.
3
Season the Mixture
Add salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
4
Incorporate the Eggs
Make small wells in the tomato mixture and crack the eggs into the wells. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes.
5
Garnish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm with crusty bread.
