5 tbsp butter
½ cup white cooking wine

pinch red pepper flakes
salt to taste

spaghetti, cooked
4 eggs
2 tbsp prepared pesto

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small skillet, whisk the butter over medium heat, until melted. Whisk in the cooking wine, lemon juice, red peppers, and a dash of salt and pepper. Cooking over medium heat, allow the mixture to come to a boil and reduce slightly.
Twirl the pasta around a long fork to create little pasta nests in a round baking dish (or just dump your pasta into the dish andcreate small wells in pasta for your eggs). Crack the eggs in the center of the pasta nests. Drizzle the butter sauce around the the eggs, coating the pasta well. Place several small dollops of pesto around the pasta. Salt and pepper to taste.Place the pasta in the preheated oven and bake for 7-10 minutes, depending on your preferred doneness for the baked eggs.
