| Method: | |
| 1. | Heat oven to 375°F. |
| 2. | Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion, Red Jalapeño Puree and tomato sauce/puree. Cook gently until very soft, about 10 minutes. Add roasted garlic, stir in oregano and salt/pepper blend. Cook for a minute and pour in tomatoes and simmer until sauce spends some time together (about 10 minutes). Remove from heat and check for seasoning- add more oregano or a pinch of salt and pepper, as needed. |
| 3. | Grab 6 mini paella style pans. Place 4-6 oz of warm cooked tomato sauce into the pans and sprinkle with feta and gently crack 1-2 eggs on top of the sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until eggs are just set, 5-8 minutes. |
| 4. | Sprinkle with fresh oregano and serve. |
