Preparation: Gather Your Ingredients

First things first, let's make sure we have everything we need. Take note of the following ingredients: eggs, bell peppers, onion, garlic, olive oil, crushed tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and crumbled feta cheese.

Step 1: Sauté the Veggies

Heat up a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell peppers, sautéing them for about 5 minutes until they soften. Toss in the minced garlic and cook for another minute to release all those wonderful aromas.

Step 2: Add the Tomato Base

Time to add the crushed tomatoes to the skillet. Sprinkle in the cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to season the sauce. Give it a good stir and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 3: Create Wells for the Eggs

Now, using a spoon, make small wells in the tomato sauce. Carefully crack each egg into a well, making sure not to break the yolk. Keep some distance between each egg to avoid them sticking together.

Step 4: Cook to Perfection

Put a lid on the skillet and let the shakshuka simmer for around 5-7 minutes, or until the whites of the eggs are set and the yolks are still slightly runny. If you prefer your eggs well-done, just cook them a bit longer. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to slightly melt.

Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat. Grab a spoon and scoop some shakshuka onto a plate. The dish pairs well with a slice of keto-friendly bread or a side of fresh salad. Now, dig in and enjoy your keto-friendly Shakshuka with Feta!
