Spicy Creamy Chickpeas with Runny Eggs and Prosciutto

Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1 sprig rosemary (optional)
- 1 (15-oz.) can chickpeas, rinsed
- 1 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 1 tsp. sweet smoked paprika
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 4 thin slices of prosciutto
- Flaky sea salt (optional)
- Flatbread (for serving)
Instructions
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium. Cook garlic and rosemary (if using), tossing, until garlic is golden brown and rosemary crisps up slightly but isn’t browned, about 30 seconds for rosemary and 2 minutes for garlic. Transfer rosemary to a plate.
- Add chickpeas, tomato paste, and paprika to skillet and cook, stirring often, until coated, about 1 minute. Mix in cream, season with kosher salt and lots of pepper, and bring to a simmer.
- Crack eggs into chickpea mixture and season them with kosher salt. Cover (a baking sheet works great if you don’t have a matching lid) and cook until white parts of eggs are set but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and drape prosciutto around eggs. Crumble rosemary on top and sprinkle with sea salt, if desired, and more pepper. Serve with flatbread.
