Before you cook
Use an ovenproof skillet so the dish can move directly from stovetop to oven.
How to make Sloppy Joe Baked Eggs
Heat the oven to 400°F. In a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, soften the onion, pepper and carrot in the oil for 10 to 12 minutes.
Reduce to medium and cook the ketchup with the vegetables until it darkens, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and chili powder for 1 minute. Stir in the vinegar, mustard and Worcestershire, heat for 1 minute and transfer to a bowl.
Brown the sausage in the same skillet over medium-high, breaking it up, for 5 to 7 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil, then simmer on low for 2 to 3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Take the skillet off the heat and make four hollows. Crack an egg into each, salt the eggs and bake 8 to 10 minutes until the whites set and the yolks are still slightly runny.
