# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F.

03 - Sauté onions and bell pepper over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook another 30 seconds.
04 - Add tomatoes, oregano, and black pepper. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, letting tomatoes release some juice.

08 - Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with crusty bread or pita if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The salty feta melts into pockets of creaminess that coat every bite
  • It looks impressive but takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish
02 -
  • The eggs continue cooking after you pull them from the oven, so remove them when whites are set but yolks still look slightly underdone
  • Letting the skillet rest for just 2 minutes before serving makes it easier to scoop and lets flavors meld
03 -
  • Room temperature eggs will cook more evenly and prevent the feta from cooling down too quickly when you crack them in
  • Letting the vegetable mixture cool slightly before adding eggs helps keep the yolks from overcooking immediately
