Optional garnish

Method

Preparation

1

Bring ingredients together

Remove eggs from refrigerator 5–10 minutes before cooking to take the chill off (optional). Measure salt, pepper and garnish. Have a spatula and plate ready.

Cooking the eggs

2

Heat pan

Place a 8–10 inch nonstick or well-seasoned skillet over medium-low to medium heat. Add butter and let it melt until foaming and just beginning to turn a pale golden edge, about 30–45 seconds. Watch closely to avoid browning.

3

Crack eggs

Crack the two eggs into a small bowl or cup (one at a time) to check for shells and freshness. This also makes it easier to slide the eggs into the pan without splashing.

4

Cook eggs sunny-side up

Gently slide the eggs from the bowl into the pan, keeping the yolks intact and spacing them so they don't touch. Reduce heat slightly if sizzling aggressively. Cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes, until the whites are set around the yolk but yolks remain runny. For slightly firmer whites, cover the pan with a lid for 30–45 seconds to steam the tops.

5

Season

Season the eggs with about 1/8–1/4 tsp salt and a pinch (about 1/8 tsp) of black pepper while they're finishing in the pan.

6

Plate

Use a thin spatula to gently lift and transfer the eggs to a plate. If using garnish, sprinkle the chopped chives or parsley over the eggs.

Safety note

7

Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase the risk of foodborne illness. Cook eggs until whites are fully set. If you need fully set yolks, continue cooking or flip the eggs and cook for an additional 30–60 seconds, or until desired doneness is reached.
