Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 (15 oz) can butter beans (drained)
- 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes
- 1 cup diced chorizo
- 4 eggs
- 1 red onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 green bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon salt 1
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Heat up a little olive oil or vegetable oil over medium heat in a cast iron skillet. Add diced peppers, diced chorizo, diced onions, grated garlic and tomato paste to the skillet, and saute for a few minutes until the onion is soft.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F / 200 C.
- Add drained and rinsed white beans, canned diced tomatoes and the seasoning to the skillet, and stir to combine. Leave the dish to simmer on low heat for about 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce is quite thick.
- Use a spoon or spatula to create four wells in the tomato mixture. Crack an egg into each well. Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven, and bake for about 5 minutes, or until the egg whites have set.
- Serve the dish immediately while the egg yolks are still runny. Be careful when handling the cast iron skillet, as it will be very hot.
