Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 1/2 bulb fennel
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. dried oregano leaves
  • 1/4 tsp. fennel seed
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 8 slice prosciutto
  • 16 arugula leaves
  • 8 large eggs

Method

  • Prepare the eggs: Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the onion and cook until softened -- about 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cook 1 to 2 more minutes.
  • Add the red pepper, fennel, salt, pepper, oregano, and fennel seed and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium low, add lemon juice, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the cover and cook until vegetables are very soft -- about 10 more minutes.
  • Line eight 4-ounce ramekins with prosciutto and arugula leaves.
  • Place ramekins on a baking sheet, spoon about 1/4 cup of the pepper mixture into each, and crack 1 egg into each ramekin, preserving whole yolks.
  • Bake until eggs are set -- about 12 minutes.
  • Serve immediately.
