Shakshuka
- 1 Thinly sliced onion
- 4 Cloves minced garlic
- 1 Thinly sliced red bell pepper
- 1 Thinly sliced green bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons Grass Feds butter (I've also enjoyed using bacon fat, tallow, or avocado oil)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Spanish paprika
- 1/8 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 14 oz can organic diced tomatoes
- 6-8 Pasture raised eggs
- Chopped green onion, for garnish
- Chopped parsley, for garnish
- Cholula hot sauce, for garnish
- Pre-heat oven to 375.. Warm your fat in an oven safe skillet on medium-low heat.
- Add onions and garlic. Cook until softened, stirring 3-5 minutes.
- Add the green and red bell peppers. Continue to cook, stirring infrequently, 5-7 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper then stir in cumin, paprika and cayenne. Stir for 2 minutes to release aromatics.
- Pour in diced tomatoes (do not drain). Increase heat and bring sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook additional 5 minutes, until sauce thickens. Taste for seasoning, adjust to preference ( I usually end up adding slightly more cumin and salt here).
- Crack your eggs in the pan directly over sauce minding the yolks. DO NOT STIR. The eggs are going to bake nestled in the sauce.
- Place skillet in middle rack. Turn on oven light so you can watch the eggs. For creamy soft baked eggs bake for 8-10 minutes. For a more well done, solid yolk increase bake time. Check doneness by shaking pan gently to see how yolks respond. A well done yolk will not wiggle.
- Once desired done-ness is achieved remove pan and allow to set for 5 minutes.
- Using a large serving spoon, serve eggs two at a time garnished with fresh herbs.
