Step by Step Method

Step 1

Heat olive oil and butter in a heavy-bottomed skillet.

Step 2

Add the green peppers and saute for 5 minutes, or until soft.

Step 3

Add the can of tomatoes, garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until the sauce has thickened slightly - about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Crack the eggs directly onto the simmering sauce and let them cook for about a minute. Use a spoon to break the yolks and briefly, gently stir the eggs into the sauce.

Step 5

Top with the crumbled feta. Continue cooking until the eggs are done to your liking - about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Garnish with the chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread to sop up the delicious tomato sauce!
