Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    In a medium oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, ground coriander, and cayenne pepper, cooking for another minute.

  4. 4

    Add the drained chickpeas to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for about 3-4 minutes to warm through.

  5. 5

    Make four small wells in the chickpea mixture and crack an egg into each well.

  6. 6

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
