STEP BY STEP
Let’s make it.
- Mix turkey, onion, thyme, paprika, half the salt and the pepper. Shape into 8 small flat patties.
- Heat oil over medium heat and cook patties for 4–6 minutes per side, until the centers reach 165°F (74°C). Transfer with their juices to a warm plate.
- Melt butter in a clean nonstick skillet. Add spinach and stir until wilted.
- Beat eggs with remaining salt. Pour over spinach and cook on low heat, stirring gently, until fully set and at least 160°F (71°C).
- Divide eggs, spinach, patties and collected juices into 4 servings, with two patties per person.
Kitchen notes
- The patties contain no breadcrumbs; gentle mixing keeps the texture lighter.
