Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for finishing

2 hot Italian sausage links, casing removed and meat crumbled

1 fennel bulb, outer layer removed, thinly sliced

1/2 Spanish onion, sliced

1 teaspoon anchovy paste

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

2 cloves garlic, sliced

2 pinches dried pepperoncini

1/4 cup dry white wine

One 28-ounce can whole San Marzano tomatoes, hand-crushed

1 tablespoon capers, drained and rinsed

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

4 large eggs, cracked into small individual bowls

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 green habanero, minced, optional

1/4 cup grated Pecorino-Romano

Baguette, toasted and rubbed with garlic for serving, optional

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and begin to brown, stirring to break into small pieces, about 4 minutes. Add the fennel and onion and raise the heat to high; continue to cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the anchovy, paprika, garlic and a pinch of pepperoncini and cook for 1 more minute. Add the wine and deglaze. Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Allow to simmer and reduce, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the capers and half the parsley. Lower the heat.
Make 4 wells in the mixture, then place an egg into each. Sprinkle the whole dish with salt and pepper. Bake 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how you prefer your eggs. Garnish with the remaining pinch pepperoncini, the habanero if using, the remaining parsley and pecorino. Serve warm with the garlic-rubbed baguette, if using.
