Spiced Shakshuka With Goat Cheese Polenta #Ragu image

"Ragú® Recipe Contest Entry" Shakshuka is a dish of eggs poached in tomato sauce and spices. My recipe is Mediterranean-inspired, with a shakshuka made easily with delicious Ragu sauce, served over creamy homemade goat cheese polenta, and topped with crispy roasted garbanzo beans.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

15 ounces garbanzo beans, drained, rinsed and patted dry
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 3/4 teaspoons fine sea salt, divided use
5 cups water
1 cup fine cornmeal
1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
3 ounces goat cheese
2 tablespoons butter
45 ounces Ragú® Pasta Sauce, old world style traditional sauce
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 eggs
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or 2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Spread out dry garbanzo beans on baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the sea salt.
  • Roast in oven until golden brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.
  • Bring water to a boil in a medium pot over medium-high heat.
  • Pour cornmeal in slowly, stirring with a wire whisk. Add remaining 1 and 1/2 teaspoons sea salt. Whisk for 3 minutes as it thickens.
  • Turn heat to low, and let cook uncovered for 30 minutes, whisking often.
  • Remove pot of cooked polenta from heat. Stir in crumbled goat cheese and butter. Mix well.
  • Pour Ragu sauce into a large pan. Stir in smoked paprika and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Break an egg into a cup. Hold the cup close to the pan and pour it gently into the simmering sauce. Repeat with the remaining 5 eggs. Cover the pan and let simmer until the whites of the eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Remove eggs from pan with a large spoon.
  • To serve, spoon goat cheese polenta into a bowl and top with tomato sauce and poached egg. Sprinkle with roasted garbanzo beans and fresh cilantro or parsley leaves. Serve immediately.
