Instructions
- Cook your pasta according to the package directions until al dente. If your olives have pits, remove them and slice the olives into pieces.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Be careful not to overheat the oil. Add the kimchi and sauté until it softens, about 2-3 minutes. Add the olives and garlic to the skillet and continue to cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld together with the kimchi.
- Toss in the cooked pasta, adding a splash of pasta water to help bind all the ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Sprinkle feta cheese and chopped green onions over the pasta, mixing them in lightly. Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, cook the eggs to your preference, either sunny-side-up or over-easy.
- As a final touch, top the pasta with a fried egg. Drizzle additional extra virgin olive oil over the dish before serving, if desired.
Notes
- For this recipe, organic vacuum-sealed Kalamata olives are recommended. If you can't find them, Kalamata olives in a brine will also work well. Just remember to rinse the brine off before use to balance the saltiness.
