Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 medium onion (Sliced and separated into rings)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (divided)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan (grated; 1 ounce)
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves (2 ounces)
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the onion slices. Sprinkle them with a pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium. 

  3. 3

    While the onion is cooking, whisk the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, a pinch of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of parmesan in a medium bowl. Set aside.

    When the onions are golden brown, add the spinach leaves to the skillet. Cook, stirring, just until the leaves begin to wilt, about 1 minute. Don't overcook the spinach.

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook the eggs over medium heat, pushing them back and forth with a rubber spatula, until set to your liking.
