Ingredients
Eggs
Feta cheese
Tortilla, hash browns or toast
Avocado, optional
Directions
Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crumble in feta (~1.5 ounces or 1/3 cup) around the perimeter.
Immediately crack an egg into the center and season with black pepper and red pepper flakes (no need to add salt, the feta is plenty salty).
Cover pan and cook, reducing heat if necessary, until white is set, yolk is still runny, and cheese is unbelievably crispy.
Serve atop toast, with hash browns, or my personal favorite: in a charred tortilla with avocado and lime.
Cook's note:
This works with practically any hard cheese, think Parmesan frico, and probably other crumbly ones, too.
You can oil the skillet, especially if you're not using nonstick, but I find the cheese gets crispier without.
