Shakshuka is a vibrant and flavorful dish with North African and Middle Eastern origins. It features eggs gently poached in a simmering, spicy sauce of tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and garlic. It’s a one-skillet wonder that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a quick and satisfying dinner. The richness of the runny egg yolks beautifully complements the zesty, aromatic tomato sauce. Served with a side of crusty bread or warm pita for dipping, it’s a communal and comforting meal that is both easy to make and incredibly impressive. This recipe is a great base that you can easily customize with different spices or by adding cheese or meat.
