Ingredients
- 1-1/2 lbs frozen spinach (thawed [24 ounces])
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 medium yellow onion (thinly sliced [1 1/2 cups])
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 cup chopped scallions ([3-5 scallions depending on the size])
- 1/2 cup chopped dill
- 3/4 cup crumbled feta
- Juice of 1 lemon
- black pepper (to taste)
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F degrees.
- Squeeze most of the water out of the spinach, but you don’t have to go crazy—a little water left is fine and will cook off in the oven.
- Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tsp olive oil, then add the onion and 1/2 tsp salt, and cook until tender and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add the scallions and cook, stirring constantly, until just starting to soften, about 1 minute.
- Add the spinach, dill, 1/2 cup feta, lemon juice, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper and mix until everything is well-combined and heated through. Remove from the heat.
- Make four wells in the top, crack an egg into each, and season each with a little salt and pepper.
- Top spinach with remaining 1/4 cup Feta.
- Carefully transfer the skillet to the middle rack and bake just until the egg whites are set, 8 to 13 minutes, to your desired liking.
Notes
- Prep time is based on spinach already being thawed.
