Preparation
Preheat the oven.  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Cook the chorizo and vegetables: Heat ½ tsp of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chorizo (2 oz) and cook for 3-4 minutes until it starts to brown and release its oils.

Add the chopped onion (1 Tbsp) and diced red bell pepper ¼ cup, and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the chopped kale (½ cup) and cook until wilted. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.

Assemble the dish: Transfer the chorizo and vegetable mixture into a small oven-safe baking dish or individual ramekins. Make two small wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each one.

Sprinkle shredded cheese (¼ cup) over the top. Bake the eggs:  Place the dish in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (bake longer if you prefer firmer yolks).

Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
