Instructions

  1. Prep the vegetables and eggs

    1. *Prep the vegetables*: cut the potatoes, chop the kale, halve the tomatoes, slice the onion, and mince the garlic. *Beat the eggs* in a bowl with 1/8 teaspoon salt, and keep the lemon zest and juice ready.

  2. Cook and slice the egg ribbons

    2. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs, *tilt into a thin sheet*, and cook *just until set*, 45 to 60 seconds; transfer to the cutting board and slice into thin ribbons.

  3. Brown the potatoes

    3. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt, spread into *an even layer*, cook *undisturbed* for 5 minutes, then turn and brown for 5 minutes more.

  4. Steam until nearly tender

    4. Add the water, cover, and cook the potatoes *until nearly tender*, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover and cook *until the water evaporates* and the potato edges look lightly crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. Sauté the aromatics

    5. Add the remaining olive oil and the red onion. Cook, stirring often, *until the onion softens*, about 3 minutes; add the garlic, oregano, black pepper, and remaining salt, then cook *until fragrant*, about 30 seconds.

  6. Wilt the kale and soften the tomatoes

    6. Add the kale and grape tomatoes. Cover and cook *until the kale wilts* and the tomatoes *begin to slump*, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

  7. Fold in lemon and egg ribbons

    7. Remove from the heat. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and egg ribbons, then *fold gently* just until combined and *keep the ribbons visible*.
