Smoky White Bean Shakshuka

Smoky White Bean Shakshuka is a skillet dish combining a spiced tomato sauce with cannellini beans and eggs that are gently poached until the whites set but yolks remain soft. Crumbled feta and fresh parsley finish the dish with creamy and herbal notes, making it a satisfying meal with a balance of smoky, savory, and tangy flavors.

Description

This recipe builds a tomato-based sauce by sautéing minced garlic and diced onion in olive oil until soft, then adding canned peeled tomatoes crushed by hand. Smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, and freshly cracked black pepper season the sauce, which is simmered to thicken and develop depth. Salt is adjusted by tasting once the sauce has reduced slightly.

Drained cannellini beans are stirred in to provide creamy texture and protein. Once the sauce returns to a simmer, four eggs are cracked directly into the skillet and covered to steam gently until the egg whites set while yolks remain tender. Crumbled feta adds salty creaminess, and freshly chopped parsley provides a bright garnish.

This dish is a hearty breakfast or brunch option, offering a smoky undertone from the paprika complemented by the richness of beans and eggs. It can be served with crusty bread to soak up the sauce or enjoyed on its own as a protein-rich meal.

Instructions

  1. Mince the garlic and finely dice the onion. Cook both in a large deep skillet with olive oil over medium heat until the onions are soft and transparent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add the canned tomatoes and their juices, crushing the tomatoes with your hands as you add them to the skillet. Add the smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes, and some freshly cracked pepper as well. Stir to combine.
  3. Allow the sauce to come to a simmer. Let the sauce simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly. Add 1/4 tsp salt, then taste the sauce and adjust the salt or other spices to your liking.
  4. Drain the white beans, add them to the skillet, then stir to combine. Allow the skillet to return to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes more.
  5. Crack four eggs into the skillet, then place a lid on top and let them simmer for 5 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still soft. Top the skillet with the crumbled feta and chopped parsley.
