Ingredients

  • For the Baked Eggs:

    • 6 large eggs

    • 2 cups baby spinach leaves, chopped

    • 1/4 cup red capsicum, finely diced

    • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced

    • 3 tbsp milk of choice

    • Salt and pepper, to taste

    • 1 tsp olive oil (for greasing)

  • For the Chicken Patties:

    • 500g chicken mince

    • 1 tsp paprika

    • 1 tsp garlic powder

    • 1/2 tsp salt

    • 1/4 tsp black pepper

    • 1 tsp olive oil

    • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

    • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)

ย 

  • To Serve:

    • 1 ripe avocado, sliced

    • 1-2 tbsp sriracha, or to taste

    • 4 English muffins, halved and toasted


Instructions

  • Make the Baked Eggs: Preheat the oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF). Line a baking tray (approximately 20ร—20 cm) with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in the chopped spinach, capsicum, and red onion.
    Pour the egg mixture into the prepared tray, spreading it evenly. Press down any spinach leaves to ensure they are submerged in the mixture.
    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and golden on top. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting into portions.

  • Make the Chicken Patties: In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken mince, paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix well.
    Form the mixture into 4 evenly sized patties.
    Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the patties in the pan and flatten slightly using a spatula.
    Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.

ย 

  • Assemble the Muffins: Spread avocado on one side of each toasted English muffin half. Drizzle with sriracha to taste.
    Place a portion of the baked eggs on top, followed by a chicken patty.
    Top with the remaining muffin halves and serve warm.


Notes

  • Feel free to add extra veggies like mushrooms or bell peppers to the eggs for added flavor.

ย 

  • For a dairy-free version, use a non-dairy milk in the egg mixture.
