Directions
Prep:5 mCook:15 mReady:20 m
- Heat oil in a skillet over low heat. Add garlic, olives, capers, and anchovy; cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add tomato sauce and water, bring to a boil, and simmer until flavors combine, about 10 minutes. Add parsley and season with salt.
- Gently add eggs directly into tomato sauce without breaking the yolks. Cook until eggs are just cooked, 3 to 5 minutes.
