Step 1
Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium. Add diced red onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened.
Step 2
Pour in crushed tomatoes. Stir in cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
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.
Step 4
While eggs cook, toast bread until golden and crispy. Serve shakshuka in the skillet or spooned into bowls.
Step 5
Serve with toasted bread and a side salad. Drizzle extra sauce over the bread.
