1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients. If using optional ingredients like cheese or herbs, chop them finely and set aside.

2
Heat the Pan
In a non-stick skillet, heat the butter or oil over medium heat until it's hot but not smoking.
3
Crack the Eggs
Crack the eggs directly into the skillet. If you prefer scrambled eggs, you can whisk them in a bowl before pouring them into the skillet.
4
Season the Eggs
Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs. If you're using optional ingredients like cheese, add it at this stage.
5
Cook to Desired Doneness
For fried eggs, cook for about 2-3 minutes for sunny-side up, or flip them over and cook for another 1-2 minutes for over-easy. For scrambled eggs, stir gently until set, about 3-4 minutes.
6
Add Optional Toppings
If desired, sprinkle chopped chives or green onions on top and drizzle with hot sauce before serving.
