Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped 1-½ cup
  • 1 pound sliced mushrooms 5 cups
  • 1 14.5 oz can stewed tomatoes I used the Italian blend
  • 1 clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon
  • ¼ cup dry white wine Chardonnay
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • salt to taste
  • 6 large eggs
  • ½ cup grated Mozzarella
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan
  • chopped basil garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325° F (162° C).
    Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Tilt skillet to spread oil and heat until oil begins to smoke. Add chopped onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are soft and mushrooms are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
    Add garlic, tomatoes and their liquid, wine, Italian seasoning and salt. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.
    Uncover and boil gently, stirring occasionally, until tomato mixture is thickened and reduced to about 2-½ cups (about 8 minutes).
  • Divide tomato mixture between 6 greased 8-oz. ramekins or transfer all mixture to a greased 2-quart casserole, if using casserole instead.
    Use the back of a spoon to make an egg-sized hollow in each ramekin, or 6 hollows in the casserole. Crack an egg into each hollow.
  • If using ramekins, place them on a baking sheet and cover with foil. If using casserole, just cover with foil. Bake for 12 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese, and continue baking until eggs are set to your liking according to the guide below:
    Runny yolks - 13 minutes
    Fully set yolks - 18 minutes
    Remove from oven and garnish with chopped basil.
