Keto Shakshuka with Feta and Avocado
A keto-friendly twist on the classic Middle Eastern Shakshuka, with eggs poached in a rich tomato sauce, topped with feta cheese and creamy avocado. A satisfying and flavorful snack or light meal.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1/2 medium Onion
- 1/2 medium Bell Pepper
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 can (14 oz) Crushed Tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon Chili Flakes
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 ounces Feta Cheese
- 1/2 medium Avocado
Instructions
- 1Heat the 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil in a large 10-12 inch skillet over medium heat, which is about 325°F (163°C).
- 2Add the 1/2 medium Onion and 1/2 medium Bell Pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring often, until they are soft and slightly see-through, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- 3Add the 2 cloves of Garlic, minced, to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more, until you can smell its fragrance. Be careful not to let it burn.
- 4Pour in the 1 can (14 oz) of Crushed Tomatoes and stir in the 2 tablespoons of Tomato Paste, 1 teaspoon of Cumin, 1 teaspoon of Paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon of Chili Flakes. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low, about 300°F (150°C). Let it cook uncovered for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- 5Using the back of a spoon, carefully make four separate hollows, or wells, in the tomato sauce. These wells should be spaced apart from each other.
- 6Gently crack 1 large Egg into each of the four wells you made in the sauce. Try not to break the yolks.
- 7Cover the skillet with a lid and continue to cook on medium-low heat, about 300°F (150°C), for 5 to 7 minutes. The eggs are ready when the whites are fully set and opaque, but the yolks are still a little runny. If you prefer firmer yolks, cook for a minute or two longer.
- 8Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the 2 ounces of Feta Cheese evenly over the top of the shakshuka. Arrange the slices from the 1/2 medium Avocado around the dish or on top.
- 9Serve the Keto Shakshuka immediately, directly from the skillet.
