SKILLET-BAKED EGGS IN TOMATO GRAVY WITH SPINACH

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.

You can also just start with the oil and not use the bacon at all.
• Add the onion to the fat (or oil) and cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the flour and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes and milk and stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook until the tomatoes soften and the gravy thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the cooked bacon (if using), the spinach, all of the herbs, and the Aleppo pepper; stir to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper.
• Using the back of a spoon, make four wells in the tomato-spinach mixture in the skillet. Break an egg into each indentation. Season the eggs with salt and black pepper. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the whites are set and the yolks are to the desired doneness, 8 minutes for runny, 10 minutes for firm, and 12 minutes for fully set. Garnish with additional herbs and more pepper. Serve immediately with the biscuits or toast.
