Spicy Dill Feta Baked Eggs

I often stay at Hotel le Germain in Montreal, and one of the breakfast options from Laurie Raphael that they offer is "an egg casserole of the day" that is cooked and served in individual dishes. I really liked it and thought it was great presentation, so I was really excited when I came across the recipe for Tomato and Feta Baked Eggs on one of my favourite blogs, Closet Cooking. This recipe is an adaptation of the recipe on that site, with more emphasis on dill (my favourite herb!) and a bit more spice with Frank's Red Hot. 

Prep Time: 12 mins  
Hands on cook time:  16 mins
Bake Time: 17 minutesTotal Time: 45 mins


Ingredients
1/4 onion (I used sweet), chopped
2 small tomatoes, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp dried dill
1/8 cup fresh dill, chopped
1/8 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
3 dashes Frank's Red Hot, plus a few drops
1/2 cup feta, crumbled
1 tsp garlic, minced (I used jarred)
2 eggs
salt and pepper to taste
2 Naan breads


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 F.
2. Heat oil in pan over medium heat.
3. Add onion to pan and saute until soft, approx. 6 minutes.
4. Add garlic, dried dill and Frank's hot sauce and continue to saute until fragrant and mixed.
5. Reduce heat to low and add tomatoes and salt and pepper to taste.
6. Simmer until tomatoes start to break down and thickens into sauce, about 10 minutes.
7. Remove from heat and mix fresh dill, fresh parsley, feta, and green onion.
8. Divide into two portions and put in two individual sized oven safe dishes, I used French onion soup bowls.
9. Indent the centres with a bowl, and crack one egg into each indentation. Be careful not to break yolk. Put a few extra drops of Frank's Red Hot on egg.
10. Put bowls on baking sheet and bake in oven for about 15 minutes to the point where egg whites are set and sauce just starts to bubble.

Serve it up with a simple green salad and naan bread (pop it in the oven with the egg to warm) to dip in the eggs. Enjoy!

Tip: For added protein put 2 eggs in the dish, that's what I did for Mike :) It may take a bit longer for the egg to cook though...about 3 minutes or so more.
