Instructions

  1. Dice the onion and bell pepper.
  2. Then, add the olive oil, diced onion and bell pepper to an oven-safe pot over medium heat. Saute while stirring with a wooden spoon until the vegetables have softened, about 10 minutes. Once the vegetables have softened, add the garlic and saute for 1 additional minute.
  3. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper and cayenne, stirring to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes to let the flavors combine.
  4. Gently crack eggs over the top of the pot, cover and simmer until the whites are set, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, sprinkle with feta and cool for 5 minutes prior to serving. (Alternatively, when you crack the eggs over the tomato sauce you can move the uncovered pot to the oven and bake at 425 for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are set.)

Notes

  • Serve Turkish Shakshuka with pita bread for scooping up the extra sauce.
