Baked Feta Eggs Mediterranean Style (Printable)

Creamy feta meets perfectly baked eggs with tomatoes, peppers, and herbs for a quick Mediterranean morning meal.

# What you need:

→ Cheese & Dairy

01 - 4.2 oz feta cheese, cut into cubes or crumbled
02 - 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess)

→ Vegetables

03 - 1 medium tomato, diced
04 - ½ red bell pepper, finely chopped
05 - 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
06 - 1 clove garlic, minced
07 - 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

→ Eggs

08 - 4 large eggs

→ Spices & Seasoning

09 - 1 tsp dried oregano
10 - ½ tsp ground black pepper
11 - ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
12 - 1 tbsp olive oil
13 - Salt, to taste

# Directions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 375°F.
02 - Drizzle olive oil in a small ovenproof skillet or baking dish.
03 - Sauté onions and bell pepper over medium heat (in the same skillet if ovenproof) for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook another 30 seconds.
04 - Add tomatoes, oregano, and black pepper. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, letting tomatoes release some juice.
05 - Remove from heat. Stir in feta (and optional Greek yogurt); spread evenly.
06 - Using a spoon, make 4 small wells in the mixture and crack one egg into each.
07 - Sprinkle lightly with salt, red pepper flakes (if using), and a drizzle of olive oil.
08 - Transfer the skillet/baking dish to the oven. Bake 10–14 minutes, or until eggs are set to your liking.
09 - Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with crusty bread or pita if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The way the salty feta mingles with runny egg yolks creates this incredible creamy sauce that you'll want to scoop up with every bite
  • It looks impressive served right in the skillet but requires almost zero technique or fancy equipment
02 -
  • The eggs continue cooking after you remove them from the oven, so pull them when whites look set but yolks still seem slightly underdone
  • Using an ovenproof skillet eliminates the need to transfer everything, but if you don't have one, any small baking dish works beautifully
03 -
  • Let the skillet rest for 2-3 minutes after baking, this helps the eggs set slightly and makes serving easier
  • If your yolks cook too fast, tent the skillet with foil for the last few minutes of baking time
