Instructions
Step 1
Trim a few inches off the top of the onions; each onion should measure about 6" long. Halve green onions lengthwise; cut each half crosswise into 1⁄8"-thick strips. Set aside.
Step 2
Crack eggs into a bowl. Heat oil in a 12" nonstick skillet over high heat. Add onions and garlic; cook, stirring frequently with a spatula, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
Step 3
Add arugula and salt; stir, until greens are wilted, about 1 minute. Quickly add eggs and parsley; stir vigorously to break up yolks and whites. Let cook, undisturbed, for 30 seconds. Break eggs up a bit with a spatula. Let cook until set, about 30 seconds more.
Step 4
Transfer to a bowl, squeeze juice of the lemon over top, and sprinkle with pepper.
