Equipment

  • 8 or 10-inch frying pan or non-stick skillet

Ingredients
 

  • 2 eggs (any size)
  • 1 tablespoon oil for frying (olive, canola)
  • 2 teaspoon chili crisp, plus more for drizzling on top
  • 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, grated, plus more for topping
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh herbs for garnishing (green onions, parsley, cilantro)
  • crusty bread or toast for serving

Instructions
 

  • Get the eggs ready. Crack each egg into 2 separate small bowls. (This will give you better control of the egg as it slides into the pan). Set aside.
    2 eggs
  • Heat the oil in an 8 or 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the chili crisp and spread evenly in the pan.
    1 tablespoon oil for frying, 2 teaspoon chili crisp, plus more for drizzling on top
  • Next, add the Parmesan on top of the chili crisp, and spread evenly to coat. It will sizzle. Immediately add the eggs, one at a time, on top of the chili crisp and Parmesan. Cook, untouched for 5-7 minutes until the desired doneness, adjusting the heat as needed. You can cover the pan if you want the yolks to be less runny.
    1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, grated, plus more for topping
  • Remove from the pan and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh herbs, chili crisp, and additional parmesan on top. Serve with toast or crusty bread.
