Ingredients

• 1 large Crusty bread slice
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chives

Directions

Step 1

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, spreading it evenly over the surface.

Step 2

Using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass, press a hole about 2 inches in diameter in the center of the bread slice. Keep the cut-out piece for later.

Step 3

Place the bread slice in the skillet and let it toast slightly for about 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Crack the egg into the hole in the bread, being careful not to break the yolk.

Step 5

Season the egg with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Cook until the egg white begins to turn opaque, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Carefully flip the bread with the egg to cook the other side, roughly 2-3 more minutes, or until the egg reaches your desired doneness.

Step 8

Simultaneously, toast the cut-out bread piece in the skillet until golden brown on both sides.

Step 9

Remove from heat, garnish with chopped chives, and serve immediately.
