Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium. Add diced red onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened.

  2. Step 2

    Pour in crushed tomatoes. Stir in cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. Step 3

    Make 4 small wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each well. Cover and simmer until whites set but yolks jiggle, ~3–4 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    While eggs cook, toast bread until golden and crispy. Serve shakshuka in the skillet or spooned into bowls.

  5. Step 5

    Serve with toasted bread and a side salad. Drizzle extra sauce over the bread.

Tools you’ll need

  • 10-inch skillet with lid
