⏱️ Cooking Time: 20 minutes | 🍽️ Servings: 1

Instructions

  1. 1.
    Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the diced chicken breast. Season with salt and sauté for about 7-10 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through. You want the chicken to be golden on the outside, indicating it's well-cooked yet tender inside. Ensure there are no pink parts visible in the chicken.
  2. 2.
    While the chicken is cooking, whisk the eggs in a small bowl until they are fully combined and slightly frothy. Adding a pinch of salt here can enhance the flavor. Set aside.
  3. 3.
    Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a plate and cover it to keep warm. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until it begins to wilt. You want the spinach to retain some of its vibrant color and not become too soft.
  4. 4.
    Push the spinach to one side of the skillet, then pour the whisked eggs into the empty side. Allow the eggs to set slightly before gently stirring them, integrating them slowly with the spinach. This ensures the eggs remain fluffy and evenly cooked. Cook until the eggs are firm but still moist, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. 5.
    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and gently mix it with the spinach and eggs. Cook together for an additional minute to ensure the flavors meld nicely. Serve immediately, adjusting salt to taste.
