Shakshuka is a popular dish in the Middle East and North Africa. It consists of poached eggs in a spicy tomato sauce usually served with bread for dipping. Overseas it’s enjoyed for breakfast, but it could definitely make for a delicious breakfast-for-dinner option. Who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?
We cooked this sheet pan shakshuka in the Hamilton Beach Easy Reach Toaster Oven. The toaster oven version makes a lovely breakfast for two, but feel free to make it in the oven on a standard baking sheet if you’re feeding the family.
In a large skillet over medium-high, heat oil and add onion and one large Anaheim chile pepper. Cook until tender then stir in garlic, cumin, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Then add tomatoes and Hatch chiles and cook until the mixture reduces and thickens.
Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and make four wells (we used a spoon) for the eggs. Carefully crack the eggs into the wells and bake for about 10 minutes at 375 degrees – until the eggs are just set. You’ll want a runny yolk so it can mix with the spicy tomato sauce.
We topped our shakshuka with feta cheese and a sprinkle of parsley. And be sure to serve it with plenty of warm naan for dipping – you won’t want to leave a bit of this dish behind.
