How to Make It
  1. Add olive oil to a large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the green onions and saute until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the small chopped broccoli and saute for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add the minced garlic, cumin, salt and pepper and cook for a minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the kale, cook and stir until the kale has started to wilt, about 2 minutes.
  5. Add the vegetable broth and salsa verde and bring to a simmer over high heat. Turn to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. Make little wells in the greens and crack the eggs into each well. Let cook for 2 minutes.
  7. Then, cover the pan with a lid to let the eggs finish cooking, about 2-6 minutes depending on how you like your eggs done. (If you like a runnier yolk, watch the eggs closely and check at the 2 minute mark so they don’t overcook. If you prefer a harder yolk, cook for closer to 5-6 minutes).
  8. Remove the shakshuka from the heat and top with salt, pepper sliced jalapeno, avocado slices, crumbled feta cheese, fresh cilantro and sliced green onions. Serve with bread if desired.
