How to Make Huevos A La Flamenca

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, cook 1 lb Spanish chorizo sausage, 4 oz diced ham, 1 medium onion (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced) over medium heat until onion is softened and sausage is browned (about 8-10 minutes).
  3. Drain off excess fat from the skillet.
  4. Stir in 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes, 1 red bell pepper (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 2 tbsp tomato puree, 1 oz pimento (chopped), 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp dried oregano, and 1/2 tsp ground red pepper.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
  6. Simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and most of the liquid has evaporated.
  7. Spoon the sauce into six lightly greased 8-10 oz individual oven-safe casseroles.
  8. Crack 6 eggs, one at a time, into separate small bowls to avoid breaking the yolks.
  9. Carefully slide one egg into each casserole, on top of the sauce.
  10. Arrange 1/2 cup cooked asparagus and 1/2 cup cooked peas around each egg.
  11. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
  12. Sprinkle with smoked paprika before serving, if desired.
