Over-Easy Eggs

Step 1

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, and immediately season the eggs with the salt and pepper. Cook the eggs until their whites are set, two to three minutes.

Step 2

Slide your spatula fully underneath one of the eggs, then carefully flip it. Repeat the same process with the other egg. Cook the eggs until the whites are fully set but the yolks are still runny, 30 to 60 seconds. Serve the eggs while they’re still hot.
