1
Crack the Egg
Carefully crack the egg on a flat surface to avoid shell fragments. Open the shell and let the egg drop into a bowl.
2
Season the Egg (Optional)
If desired, add a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper to the bowl with the egg.

3
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet on the stove over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter or oil and let it melt or heat up.
4
Cook the Egg
Once the skillet is hot, gently slide the egg from the bowl into the skillet. Allow it to cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set and the yolk is still runny, or longer if you prefer a firmer yolk.
5
Serve the Egg
Using a spatula, carefully lift the cooked egg from the skillet and transfer it to a plate. Enjoy it immediately as is or with toast, salad, or other accompaniments.
