Ingredients
Scale
- 1 salmon fillet (about 150g)
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 tbsp olive oil (divided)
- Salt & freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- Diced avocado (for serving)
Instructions
- Heat ½ tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Place skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes. Flip carefully and cook another 2–3 minutes until just cooked through.
- In a small pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over low heat. Crack in the egg gently and cook sunny-side up until the whites are set but yolk remains runny.
- In the same skillet used for salmon, sauté sliced mushrooms until golden brown, adding minced garlic if desired.
- Quickly sauté spinach in a drizzle of olive oil until wilted—this should take about 1 minute.
- Plate your beautifully cooked salmon, sunny egg, sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and diced avocado. Sprinkle with cracked black pepper before serving.
