Savory Mediterranean Chickpea Shakshuka with Herbed Feta

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1 Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
2. 2 Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
3. 3 Pour in the crushed tomatoes and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. 4 Stir in the drained chickpeas and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
5. 5 Create small wells in the sauce using a spoon and carefully crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook until the eggs are set to your liking, about 5-7 minutes.
6. 6 In a small bowl, combine the crumbled feta, chopped parsley, and chopped mint. Mix gently to combine.
7. 7 Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the herbed feta over the shakshuka.
8. 8 Serve the shakshuka hot with crusty bread or pita for dipping.
