Ingredients

  • 1 Tbs. salted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Heat the butter in a 8 to 10-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat until lightly foaming, tilting pan to evenly distribute the melted butter.
  • Carefully break eggs into the skillet, season with salt, and cook until the whites are nearly set on top and the yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes.
  • Using a flexible spatula, gently flip the eggs one at a time, season with salt, and let cook another 10 to 20 seconds. Transfer to a plate, season with pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
