Spanish-Style Baked Eggs with Sausage and Tomato

Ingrediënten
MAKES 1 SERVING
- 1 medium tomato sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
- 1 tablespoon of water
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 large garlic clove crushed
- 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 4 1/4-inch slices of rice-filled black sausage (morcilla) or any breakfast or sweet Italian-style sausage
- 1 or 2 large eggs

Instructies
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Season the tomato slices with salt, pepper, and crushed garlic, then sprinkle them with the chopped parsley.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
- Add the tomato slices and cook, turning them once, until they soften and release their juices, which should take about 1 minute per side.
- Transfer the tomato slices to a shallow ovenproof casserole dish or Dutch oven, arranging them in a single layer.
- Deglaze the skillet by adding 1 tablespoon of water, stirring, and scraping up any flavorful bits from the bottom.
- Pour this liquid over the tomatoes.
- Wipe out the skillet, grease it lightly, and heat it over medium heat.
- Add the sausage slices and cook, turning them once, until they’re lightly browned on both sides.
- Break the egg(s) into the center of the casserole dish.
- Place the sausage slices around the edges of the dish and sprinkle the entire dish with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Transfer the casserole dish to the preheated oven and bake until the egg whites are set, but the yolks are still soft, which should take about 6 minutes.
- If you’re using an earthenware dish, serve the baked eggs with sausage and tomato directly in the dish.
- Otherwise, transfer it to an individual serving plate.
