Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 eggs
  • salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat a 10" non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt butter.
  2. Once butter is melted, crack eggs one at a time and add to the skillet.
  3. Allow to cook without moving until the whites are set, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons water to the skillet (it's ok if the water is on the set egg whites) and place a lid on the skillet.
  5. Continue to cook until eggs are set but the yolk is still soft, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Remove from the pan immediately so the eggs don't overcook.
  7. Season with salt & pepper to taste.
