1
Sautéing the Tomatoes
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cherry tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to soften and burst.
2
Adding Za'atar
Once the tomatoes are softened, add the za'atar spice mix to the skillet. Stir well to combine and let cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

3
Creating Wells for the Eggs
Using a spoon, create two small wells in the tomato mixture. Crack an egg into each well, ensuring that the yolk remains intact.
4
Cover and Cook
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Adjust the cooking time based on your preference for egg doneness.

5
Toasting the Bread
While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread to your desired level of crispiness. You can use a toaster or a skillet.

6
Plating the Dish
Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the shakshuka and serve immediately with the toasted bread on the side.
