Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 6 oz. feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 pints grape tomatoes halved if they’re on the larger side
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil divided
  • 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 3/4 tsp. coriander seeds
  • 3/4 tsp. cumin seeds
  • 1/3 cup basil leaves roughly chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 5 oz. package mixed salad greens
  • 4 slices country-style bread toasted
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F. Place the grape tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle with smoked paprika, along with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper. Toss everything together to coat well. Roast in the oven for about 8 minutes, or until the tomatoes soften and begin to burst, releasing their juices.
  • While the tomatoes roast, crush the coriander and cumin seeds using a mortar and pestle until they are coarsely ground. This will help release their natural oils and boost their aroma and flavor.
  • Once the tomatoes are ready, scatter the crumbled feta evenly over the top. Use the back of a spoon to create 8 shallow wells among the tomato mixture—each will hold one egg. Sprinkle the ground spices over the entire surface. Return the baking sheet to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes, just enough time for the cheese to soften and slightly melt.
  • Carefully crack one egg into each prepared well. Slide the sheet back into the oven and bake for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until the egg whites are just set and the yolks are still slightly runny. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the chopped basil for a fresh finishing touch.
  • Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Add the mixed greens and toss gently until evenly coated.
  • Serve the baked eggs warm, accompanied by the fresh salad and toasted slices of country bread for scooping and savoring every bite.
