Servings: 2 over easy eggs
Equipment
- Medium nonstick pan
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs cold
- ½ teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste (or other seasonings)
Instructions
- Preheat a medium-sized nonstick pan over medium heat.
- Once hot, drizzle olive oil throughout the pan. Crack the eggs into the pan in a single layer.
- Cook eggs for 4-7 minutes until the whites are just set. The whites are set when they jiggle slightly when poked.
- Use a spatula to separate the eggs if they’re touching each other, and then gently flip eggs using the spatula and a spoon to help guide you if necessary. Cook them on the other side for just 20-30 seconds.
- Remove the over easy eggs from the pan right away. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve.
