It’s traditionally served for breakfast throughout North Africa and the Middle East, but shakshouka is also a vibrant brunch dish and a warming, homey dinner. The base of shakshouka is flexible and forgiving, thus amenable to additional ingredients and varying heat levels. This recipe nudges the stew into dinner territory with the hearty additions of chickpeas, wilted greens and spicy sausage. These ingredients are optional; for a meatless option, add black olives to the ragout and feta cheese scattered over the top. Once the eggs are set, remove the shakshouka from the heat and garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro.
