    Love the Mediterranean dishes! Spent three years in Turkey & really loved the culinary amalgamation that they have going on there. Truly the best of the whole region, in one cuisine. ❤️‍🔥🌶

    Just tried this one. Had to improvise on the pepper. Used a red bell and an Anaheim. Gave it great flavor! Other than that fallowed the recipe. Really good! Thank you for sharing.

    Absolute madness Mike😵‍💫In Greece we have something similar calles *Strapatsátha* but (unfortunately) without the chilies and with Feta cheese. In my variation I use Turkish Sucuk saucage which is very spicy. Take care🌶

    YUMMY!! I made this with a few variations. I made some Italian sausage (removed from the casings) set it aside, then in the same cast iron pan, sweat some jalapenos, finger hot peppers and added tomatoes. Let the flavours combine and then added the meat back in to the pan. Let that simmer for about 20mins and yes, I added cheese :) The last addition was the scrambled eggs and once again, let those flavours all marry up. Absolutely delicious. Thank you for an awesome recipe. Love all of your recipes!

      @@ChiliPepperMadness sup mike, made today with hot Portuguese chorizo had, and finished just Calabrian chilies.. was awesome.. but right any peppers work, I've added chorizo to shakshuka eggs so why not lol. Really only difference was cooking of eggs? Too bad eggs expensive 🤣😂, again tyvm

    If you don't scramble the eggs, and add them to poach in the liquid, you would have shakshuka

    • @Kingfisher1215
      @Kingfisher1215 Před rokem

      Shakshuka doesn’t have cheese or meat, which he mentions as a potential addition. True, this is very similar to shakshuka, it’s clearly a different dish.
