Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 whole bunch of collard greens stemmed and chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic finely chopped
- 1-2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1-2 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds for garnish
- 2 tbsp. liquid aminos (or Gluten Free soy sauce)
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F and then preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and then add the chopped garlic after a while.
Step 2
Stir frequently for about 1 minute and watch closely as garlic can burn quickly.
Step 3
Add the chopped collard greens and toss them with the garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until they have slightly wilted but not completely cooked.
Step 4
Season with pepper and toss again.
Step 5
Use a wooden spoon to move the collards around and make 4 little nests for the eggs. Crack eggs into each nest and season with pepper. Transfer the whole skillet to the oven.
Step 6
Bake for 5-6 minutes to get a slightly runny yolk or 7-8 minutes for a harder yolk.
Step 7
Once the eggs are cooked, remove them from the oven and drizzle the liquid aminos over the top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy!
