Notes
Use a large skillet: Gives room for the eggs to cook evenly.
Stainless steel is best: Tomatoes are acidic, which means they can react with the seasoning on a cast iron pan.
Don’t skip draining: Make sure spinach isn’t too wet to avoid watering down the sauce.
Crack eggs carefully: Pour them in gently so the yolks stay whole.
Watch the oven: Remove as soon as whites are opaque to avoid overcooking.
