Instructions:
Sauté aromatics: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook 5–7 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic, smoked paprika, and cumin for 1 minute.
Build the diablo sauce: Add Red Hot Sauce and tomatoes. Simmer 8–10 minutes until thickened slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning; add cayenne for extra fire if desired.
Cook the eggs: Make small wells in the sauce. Crack the eggs into the wells, cover, and cook 5–8 minutes until the eggs are done to your liking.
Finish & serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro/parsley and cheese if using. Serve immediately with warm bread or pita to scoop up the sauce.
