Ingredients for Baked Eggs With Bacon And Tomatoes

  • 6 slices bacon
  • Red Potatoes
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • Roasted Peppers
  • Diced Tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt to taste
  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 4 large eggs

How to Make Baked Eggs With Bacon And Tomatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the pan.
  3. Add diced potatoes to the skillet and sauté in the bacon grease until golden brown and slightly crispy (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Remove potatoes and set aside with the bacon.
  5. Add olive oil to the skillet. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add cherry tomatoes, red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, and half of the salt. Cook until tomatoes begin to soften and most of their juices have evaporated (about 5-7 minutes).
  7. Stir in the cooked potatoes and bacon.
  8. Grease a 7x11 inch baking dish. Transfer the potato, bacon, and tomato mixture to the prepared baking dish.
  9. Optional: Stir in jarred roasted red peppers.
  10. Make 4 indentations in the mixture. Carefully crack an egg into each indentation.
  11. Season with remaining salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  12. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your liking.
  13. Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
