Instructions
Egg's Florentine
- Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large skillet, warm oil over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper flakes and sauté until onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in garlic; sauté for 30 seconds. Stir in spinach and a pinch of salt; cook until spinach is wilted and tender, about 1 - 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in nutmeg.
- Spray 4 small ramekins or pans with cooking spray. For each ramekin, spoon in one-fourth of spinach mixture, then sprinkle on 1 1/2 teaspoons of cheese. Gently crack 1 egg on top of cheese, then sprinkle with black pepper and a pinch of salt.
- Bake until very little liquid remains, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool for 3 minutes, then run a knife around inside edge of each ramekin to loosen egg. With knife or a spatula, carefully transfer 2 per plate and serve.
Salmon
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix garlic, water, and lemon juice together in a bowl.
- Divide the above mixture into 2, then top the salmon fillets with the garlic mixture.
- Spray oven proof skillet with cooking spray, and warm over medium heat.
- Place fillets in the warm skillet. Roast in oven for 8 to 10 minutes until firm to the touch. Don’t overcook.
- Note: Once you have the ramekins in the oven, you can prepare the salmon; since the eggs take longer to cook than the salmon.
