Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
  • 3 Spanish chorizo sausages, diced
  • 1 teaspoon smoke Spanish paprika
  • 1 (28-ounce) can plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped with their juice or passed through a food mill
  • 8 eggs
  • ¾ cup finely grated aged manchego
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives (optional)
Instructions
  1. Heat a little olive oil in a saute pan, add the onions and bring to a medium heat. Season the onions with salt and cook for 5 minutes or until the onions are soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the chorizo and paprika and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and season with salt. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Taste for seasoning and adjust, if needed.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  3. Oil the 4 small round baking dishes such as cazuelas. Fill each dish about halfway with the tomato sauce. Break 2 eggs into each dish and sprinkle with grated cheese. Place the eggs into the preheated oven and bake until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 6-8 minutes.
  4. When the eggs are done, sprinkle with chives and serve.
