Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 100 grams serrano ham
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, diced onion
• 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
• 2 medium, diced tomatoes
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped parsley
• 4 slices crusty bread

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and diced tomatoes. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the vegetables to break down and become saucy.

Step 4

Add the paprika, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to evenly coat the vegetables.

Step 5

Tear the serrano ham into small pieces and add it to the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes to release its flavor into the dish.

Step 6

Make four small wells in the vegetable mixture and crack one egg into each well.

Step 7

Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the eggs cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 8

Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh, herby flavor.

Step 9

Serve immediately with crusty bread for scooping up the flavorful mixture.
