My musings

I need to try making this.

Skillet Baked Eggs with Red Peppers, Tomato and Pancetta

I had put together a quick sauce the night before for “pizza night”, and had a few leftover toppings to use.  I slow roasted the peppers, but I’ll give you the quick and easy version.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 1 red pepper, sliced thinly
• 1 red onion, sliced thinly
• 2 cups of tomato sauce, or 1 can of diced tomatoes plus a half cup of chopped herbs (I had sage in my sauce, but extra cilantro would be better)
• 1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
• 3 or 4 slices of pancetta
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• A pinch of chili flakes
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• Juice of half a lemon
• Salt, pepper and olive oil

Toss the red peppers, onion, nutmeg, salt, and chili in some olive oil in an oven proof skillet.  Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to get soft.  Add the cilantro and sugar, mixing in, before adding the tomato sauce and lemon.  Cook for about 5 more minutes until it’s reduced slightly, then lay in strips of the pancetta so it’s half poking out of the sauce.  Bake for 10 minutes at 200C / 375F.

Remove from the oven and crack the eggs into 2 holes (don’t break one like I did!), season with a bit of salt and pepper, then bake for 4-5 more minutes.  Serve with fresh bread, or just dig in.
