Add shallots, garlic, and chorizo, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. In a bowl, combine all ingredients except eggs and cheese. Season to taste and mix well. Scoop mixture back into pan and even out, adding four small pockets for eggs. Crack four eggs gently into pockets, being careful not to break the yolks. Sprinkle with cheese, and then bake for 20–25 minutes, until the eggs whites have set but the yolks are still runny. Note: The eggs will continue to cook after being removed from the oven. Top with parsley. Enjoy!
