Step 1

Sauté the veggies: Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.  Add onion and peppers and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 2

Add tomatoes and seasonings: Reduce heat to medium.  Add the tomatoes, butter, Aleppo pepper, plus a generous pinch of salt and black pepper.  Stir until evenly combined, then sauté for 2 more minutes, until the tomatoes are nice and hot.

Step 3

Add the eggs: Crack the eggs on top of the tomato mixture.  Let the eggs cook for about 1 minute.  Then use a spoon to break the yolks and briefly stir the eggs into the tomato mixture.  (I recommend only partially stirring in the eggs, so that they are nice and swirly on top.)  Continue cooking until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness.  (Traditionally the eggs are cooked until just barely set, yet still soft, about 3 to 4 minutes total.)

Step 4

Serve.  Serve immediately with your desired garnishes, along with some crusty sliced bread for dipping.
