Step 1
Mix spinach, ricotta, pecorino, parsley, nutmeg, and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a bowl until combined.
Step 2
Brush a 10-inch skillet with melted butter. Layer 3 phyllo sheets, brushing butter between each, letting edges overhang.
Step 3
Spread spinach mixture onto phyllo. Fold overhanging edges over filling. Layer remaining 3 phyllo sheets on top, brushing butter between each.
Step 4
Cook over medium heat for 8 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Transfer skillet to a 400°F oven.
Step 5
Bake for 10 minutes until the top is golden and edges curl slightly.
Step 6
Push erbazzone to the side. Add a pinch of butter to the skillet and crack both eggs into the open space. Cook until whites set, yolks still jiggle, ~3 minutes.
Step 7
Serve directly from the skillet, cutting the erbazzone in half and sliding an egg onto each portion.
