Greek Spinach and Feta Egg Skillet
Baked eggs nestle into tender spinach and juicy tomatoes with salty feta and oregano, served with warm whole-wheat pita for a hearty Greek-inspired breakfast.
Ingredients
- 🥚 4 large eggs
- 🫒 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 🧅 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 🌿 4 cups fresh spinach
- 🍅 2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
- 🧀 3 1/2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
- 🌿 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 🧂 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 🫓 2 7-inch whole-wheat pitas
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and place a 10-inch ovenproof skillet on the stovetop.
- Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
- Add the onion and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, spinach, oregano, and salt, then stir until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Spread the vegetables evenly across the skillet and sprinkle about two-thirds of the feta over them.
- Make four small wells in the vegetables, crack one egg into each well, and sprinkle the remaining feta around the eggs.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake at 400°F until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are still slightly soft, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Warm the pitas in the oven during the final 2 minutes, then remove the skillet and pitas, rest the eggs for 2 minutes, and serve one-half of the skillet with one pita per person.
