Ingredients

  • 1 medium tomato sliced into ¼-inch slices
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 large garlic clove mashed
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 ¼-inch slices of rice-filled black sausage (morcilla), or substitute with breakfast or sweet Italian-style sausage
  • 1 or 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Season the tomato slices with salt, pepper, mashed garlic, and parsley.
  • In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil.
  • Add the seasoned tomato slices and cook for about 1 minute per side, turning once until they soften and release their juices.
  • Transfer the tomatoes to a shallow baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.
  • Deglaze the skillet by adding water and stirring to scrape up any flavorful bits.
  • Pour this over the tomatoes in the baking dish.
  • Wipe the skillet and lightly grease it.
  • Heat over medium heat, then add the sausage slices.
  • Cook until lightly browned on both sides.
  • Break the egg(s) into the center of the baking dish among the tomatoes.
  • Arrange the browned sausage slices around the edges and sprinkle everything with grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 6 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain soft.
  • If using an oven-safe serving dish, serve the baked eggs with sausage and tomato directly from the dish while hot.
  • Otherwise, transfer to individual plates and serve promptly.
