Ingredients

GARLIC-HERB HOT SAUCE

1 1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
4 jalapenos, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

TOMATO-POACHED EGGS

2 tablespoons EVOO
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 jalapenos, seeded and chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 28 ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, crushed
6 eggs
Pita, for serving

Preparation

For the sauce, in a food processor, puree all ingredients. Season with salt.

For the eggs, in a large skillet, heat the EVOO over medium-high. Add the bell pepper and jalapenos. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and spices; cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and their liquid. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Using the back of a spoon, make 6 evenly spaced indentations in the sauce. Crack 1 egg into each; season. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until the whites are just set, about 7 minutes. Serve with the pita and garlic-herb hot sauce.
