Moonstruck Eggs in a Basket

Name: Moonstruck Eggs in a Basket
Ingredients: 1 half day-old (or more) French bread (long); 1/2 cup marinated red and green peppers, sliced into long strips (I use red and green Hatch chiles canned last August - they have perfect heat. If you don't have that option, include marinated bell peppers and one chile d'arbol pinched into bits); 2 cloves of garlic, slivered; 1 pint cherry tomatoes; 2 tablespoons olive oil (or bacon fat, if available); 2 tablespoons butter; 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds; 4 eggs, double yolks if you can find them; Parley, minced (optional); Salt and pepper, to taste
