Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Breakfast
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup spinach
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by washing and chopping the bell pepper into small dice, slicing zucchini into thin rounds, and roughly chopping spinach leaves.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil, ensuring the entire surface is lightly coated.
- Add diced bell peppers to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften and become slightly translucent.
- Incorporate sliced zucchini into the pan and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Season the vegetables with salt and pepper, mixing gently to distribute the seasoning evenly.
- Spread the vegetables evenly across the pan's surface and create small wells or spaces for the eggs.
- Carefully crack each egg directly into the spaces between the vegetables, keeping them slightly separated.
- Sprinkle chopped spinach around and between the eggs, allowing it to wilt naturally from the heat.
- Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until egg whites are set and yolks reach desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute before serving directly from the pan.
- Optionally garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor and presentation.
Tips
- Choose a high-quality non-stick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Cut vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the dish.
- Use medium heat to prevent burning and allow vegetables to caramelize gently, enhancing their natural flavors.
- Create small wells in the vegetables for eggs to help them cook more evenly and look professionally prepared.
- For perfectly cooked eggs, cover the pan with a lid to trap steam and help set the egg whites while keeping yolks soft.
- Experiment with different vegetables based on seasonality or your preferences—this recipe is incredibly versatile!
- Fresh herbs like parsley or chives can elevate the dish's presentation and add a burst of fresh flavor.
- If you prefer firmer egg yolks, simply cook a bit longer; for runny yolks, reduce cooking time slightly.
