This shakshuka recipe is an easy version of the popular Middle Eastern poached egg dish. I love shakshuka — it's delicious, healthy, and makes a satisfying breakfast or brunch. I use canned tomatoes instead of fresh, which means I can make it whenever I want with ingredients from my pantry!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 onion , cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper , cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 , 28 ounce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika , or to taste
  • 2 slices pickled jalapeño pepper , finely chopped
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 , 6 inch

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic, onion, and bell pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes, paprika, and jalapeños; stir, using the back of a spoon to break up the tomatoes. Simmer for about 25 minutes.

  3. 3

    Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slip the egg into the tomato sauce. Repeat with remaining eggs.

  4. 4

    Poach the eggs in the sauce until the whites are firm and the yolks have thickened but are not hard, 2 ½ to 3 minutes. If the tomato sauce gets dry, add a few tablespoons of water. Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon, place onto a warm plate, and serve with the tomato sauce and pita bread.

  5. 5

    Enjoy!
