Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Add olive oil to a preheated skillet and crumble in the ground chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until browned.
  3. In the same skillet, add chopped white onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until the onion turns translucent.
  4. Stir in rinsed cannellini beans, ground cumin, chili powder, and fire-roasted tomatoes. Add red enchilada sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Return the chorizo to the skillet and stir gently to combine. Warm for another minute.
  6. Create five nests in the mixture and crack a large egg into each. Ensure yolks stay intact.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheeses over the eggs and skillet mixture, then bake for 10-12 minutes until whites are set but yolks are runny.
  8. Remove from oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
