Sweet Pepper Shakshuka with Feta
This simple meal in a skillet merges a Romanian dish called piperchi with North African shakshuka. Crumbled feta or goat cheese is melted into a sauté of sweet peppers and tomatoes, yielding a savory-sweet, subtly creamy sauce to support eggs that are poached right in the mix. A final sprinkling of more cheese and chopped herb finishes the dish with punchy flavor and fresh, green notes. Serve with warm, crusty bread or soft, pillowy flatbread.
