Directions:

1. Heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Warm the olive oil in the pan briefly, then add the onion and garlic. Saute until the onion gets soft, and the garlic begins to brown. Add the bell pepper and saute the mixture until the bell pepper is also soft.
2. Add the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Stir until the mixture is well combined. Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, basil, tarragon, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the spices and let the mixture simmer for about 6 minutes. It should begin to reduce.
3. Crack the eggs overtop the tomato mixture, seasoning each with salt and pepper. Space them apart as evenly as you can, too.
4. Cover the skillet and allow the eggs to cook for about 10 to 12 minutes. The whites should be set, but the yolks will still be a little bit runny. The sauce will be slightly reduced when the eggs are finished cooking.
5. If desired, garnish the top of the shakshuka with the chopped parsley.
