Recipe Notes
- *For a runny egg yolk, follow steps 1 to 3, then place the skillet in the preheated oven. Halfway through the cooking process (about 10 minutes in), crack a cold egg into the well of the spinach and replace the skillet in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes. The salmon will be cooked through, the egg white will show color, and the yolk will be runny.
