Shakshuka with Chickpeas & Feta | Possibly the BEST Shakshuka EVER

This Shakshuka with Chickpeas & Feta is what healthy comfort food is all about. We’re talking a ton of Mediterranean flavors, simple everyday ingredients, and all done in under 30 minutes using just one pan. Serve it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and always next to a crunchy baguette for a great meal.

Shakshuka with Chickpeas & Feta
To make this recipe, I used a combination of canned tomato sauce (passata) and canned diced tomatoes. You can also use canned whole tomatoes if you like. Just crush the tomatoes with a spatula once you add them into the pan.

For the chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans), I used canned chickpeas. Just to make things quicker and easier. If you prefer, you can use dried chickpeas. Just soak them overnight in plenty of water and then simmer the following day for 1 to 2 hours or until tender.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: It took me about 5 minutes to perfectly cook the eggs. With the egg whites set and the yolks slightly creamy. It might take you more or less. Just keep an eye on the eggs as they are cooking.
