Ingredients
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter
- 1 piece Garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 pinch Red chili flakes
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the unsalted butter and let it melt, swirling the pan to combine it with the olive oil.
Step 3
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, being careful not to let it burn.
Step 4
Sprinkle in the fresh thyme leaves and red chili flakes, stirring to infuse the oil with their flavors.
Step 5
Crack the eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks. Sprinkle the tops with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Step 6
Cook the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes for sunny-side up. For over-easy eggs, carefully flip them using a spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
Step 7
Remove the eggs from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a bright, herby finish.
Step 8
Serve immediately, with toasted bread or as a topping for avocado toast, if desired.
