Instructions 

Prepare the Vegetables:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the chopped onions and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and become fragrant (about 5 minutes).
3. Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, and paprika. Cook for another minute until the spices are fragrant.

Add the Mareli Marinara Sauce:

1. Pour in the jar of Mareli Marinara Sauce (Original or Spicy, as per your taste). Stir well to combine with the vegetables.
2. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5-10 minutes so the flavors meld together. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
3. Poach the Eggs: Create small wells in the sauce with a spoon. Gently crack an egg into each well.
4. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs cook for about 5-10 minutes, or until they are poached to your desired level of doneness. You can leave them runny or cook until fully set.
5. Garnish and Serve: Once the eggs are cooked, take the skillet off the heat.
6. Garnish your Shakshuka with chopped parsley or cilantro.
7. Serve hot with crusty bread or pita to scoop up the delicious sauce and eggs.
