Ingredients
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- more if needed olive oil
- 1 yellow onion
- 1 red bell pepper
- 2.5 garlic cloves
- 1 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp chili flakes
- 1 4/5 lb diced tomatoes
- 6 eggs
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- crumbled feta cheese
- optional cilantro
- for serving bread
Instructions
- 1Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (or more olive oil if needed), then add the thinly sliced onion and red bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5–10 minutes.
- 2Add the thinly sliced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, and chili flakes. Stir and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant, adding a little more oil if the pan looks dry.
- 3Pour in the diced tomatoes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for roughly 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- 4Stir in the crumbled feta cheese, allowing it to melt slightly into the sauce.
- 5Create six small wells in the sauce and crack one egg into each well. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for 6–8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your preferred doneness.
- 6Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with optional chopped cilantro.
- 7Serve the shakshuka hot, accompanied by bread for dipping.
