Ingredients

  • ½ lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 large eggs
  • 1 large biscuit
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the 0.5 lb shrimp dry with paper towels and season with 0.25 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

  3. 3

    Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 minced garlic clove. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  4. 4

    Add the 2 cups baby spinach and toss until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  5. 5

    In the same skillet, fry the 1 egg to your liking (sunny-side up or over easy), about 2-3 minutes until the white is set and the yolk is still runny.

  6. 6

    Warm the 1 biscuit in the microwave for 15 seconds or in a toaster oven for 3 minutes.

  7. 7

    Plate the biscuit, top with wilted spinach, shrimp, and the fried egg. Serve immediately.
