To make Harissa Shakshuka, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

To start, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and continue to sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
Next, add the cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, and salt to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the harissa paste and canned diced tomatoes and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Using a spoon, make two small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook for 5-7 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
