Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 red bell pepper, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

4 large eggs

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Avocado slices for serving (optional)

Crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Instructions
 

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, cooking until they soften, about 5 minutes.

    Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

      Stir in the black beans, diced tomatoes with green chilies, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the mixture to simmer and thicken slightly.

        Using a spoon, create four small wells in the chili mixture and crack an egg into each well.

          Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness. (For runny yolks, aim for about 5 minutes.)

            Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with fresh cilantro and any optional toppings like avocado and crumbled feta cheese.

                - Presentation Tips: Serve directly from the skillet to the table for a rustic look, or plate individually. Garnish with additional cilantro and serve with warm tortillas or crusty bread on the side.
