2

Add diced onion and bell pepper to the pan and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add minced garlic and continue cooking for another minute, stirring constantly.

Add tomatoes and spices

3

Buzz the chipotle en adobo peppers in a food processor and add to the pan with the cumin. Add the whole tomatoes and canning liquid, squeezing the tomatoes to break them up.

Add the chorizo back in. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer for around 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens.

Add eggs

Remove pan from heat. Create 5-6 “wells” in the sauce. Crack a large egg into each little well.

Bake shakshuka

Garnish with fresh parsley and cotija or feta cheese.
