Recipe: Sicilian Tomatoes and Eggs

Xalfa Aralık 30, 2021

Growing up our dear family friend would make this simple dish every summer. She was born and raised in the same town as my family in Sicily. I always looked forward to it as the summer season drew near. She looked forward to it because she hated to waste her garden's produce. It's simple, inexpensive, and very healthy. As my zia would say, "Bon Apetit!".

Sicilian Tomatoes and Eggs

Ingredients

(1) Large vidalia onion

(8) Plum tomatoes

(8) Eggs

(1/4) Cup fresh oregano

Olive oil

(1) Tbsp garlic powder

Salt

Pepper

Directions

Coat the bottom of a stainless steel pan with olive oil. Chop the vidalia onion and simmer in the oil for five minutes. Add the cut and and peeled plum tomatoes into the pan. Add the oregano leaves, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 10 minutes, stirring frequently.

Crack the eggs directly over the onion and tomato mixture. Try not to break the yolk! They should look like a sunny side up egg. Cover the pan and cook for another 10 minutes or just until the egg is cooked through. Spoon carefully and serve with the egg on top, but eat with all ingredients together.

This recipe is not only delicious and healthy habits approved, it's perfect for a quick week night meal. And don't we all love something quick, easy, and fresh for after work!

Tip: Note above that I recommend a stainless steel pan. In order for the food to get the right consistency and taste, this is essential. Our favorite stainless steels pans are these ones. They cook evenly, quickly, and perfectly!
