Main Ingredients

Optional Garnishes

Method

Cooking the Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pan

    Place a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.

  2. 2

    Crack the Eggs

    Once the butter is melted and bubbling slightly, gently crack the eggs into the skillet. Be careful not to break the yolks.

  3. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. If desired, cover the skillet for the last minute to help the whites cook through without overcooking the yolks.

  4. 4

    Season the Eggs

    Sprinkle the eggs with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 5

    Garnish the Eggs

    If using, finely chop the fresh chives and sprinkle them over the eggs. Slice the cherry tomatoes and avocado for garnish.

  2. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Carefully slide the sunny side up eggs onto a plate. Arrange the sliced cherry tomatoes and avocado on the side for a colorful presentation.

  3. 7

    Enjoy!

    Serve immediately while the eggs are warm and the yolks are runny. Enjoy your sunny side up eggs!
