Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper, stir to combine, and cook for another 2 minutes.
Spread the spinach and tomato mixture evenly across the bottom of the skillet.
Using the back of a spoon, make four small wells in the spinach-tomato mixture.
Crack an egg into each well, taking care not to break the yolks.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the eggs.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Remove the skillet from the oven. Sprinkle chopped fresh basil and parsley over the top of the dish.
Serve immediately, either directly from the skillet or by carefully spooning onto plates.
