Summer Pepper Shakshuka Recipe


Razors Edge

Recommended Posts

From Blue Apron:

2  Farm Eggs
2  Pocketless Pitas
2  Red Bell Peppers
2  Sweet Peppers
1  Beefsteak Tomato
1  Red Onion
½ lb  Fingerling Potatoes
1 large bunch  Parsley
2 Tbsps  Tomato Paste
½ cup  Crumbled Feta Cheese
1 Tbsp  Shakshuka Spice Blend (Za'atar, Crushed Aleppo Pepper, Ground Sumac, Dried Thyme & Garlic Powder)

1 Prepare the ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut each pita into small triangles. Cut out and discard the stems, ribs and seeds of the bell peppers; large dice. Cut out and discard the stems of the sweet peppers; remove and discard the seeds. Thinly slice the sweet peppers into rings. Core and large dice the tomato. Peel and small dice the onion. Cut the potatoes into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Pick the parsley leaves off the stems; discard the stems and roughly chop the leaves.
2 Cook the potatoes:
In a medium pan (nonstick and oven-safe, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes, or until browned and tender. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan.
3 Start the sauce:
In the pan used to cook the potatoes, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the bell peppers and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until softened. Add the tomato paste and ¾ of the spice blend; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the tomato paste is dark red and the spices are fragrant.
4 Finish the sauce:
Add the tomato, sweet peppers, cooked potatoes, 2/3 of the parsley and 1¼ cups of water to the pan; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes, or until thickened and saucy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (If your pan is not oven-safe, transfer the finished sauce to a baking dish.)
5 Toast the pitas:
While the sauce cooks, place the pitas on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper and the remaining spice blend; toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange in a single, even layer and toast in the oven 5 to 7 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant. Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish, leaving the oven on.
6 Bake the shakshuka & serve your dish:
Using a spoon, create 2 wells in the finished sauce. Crack an egg into each well; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the cheese over the sauce and eggs. Bake 6 to 8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set. Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Garnish the baked shakshuka with the remaining parsley. Serve with the toasted pitas on the side. Enjoy!
