Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Feta Fried Eggs
  1. Begin by placing a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and let it heat until shimmering.
  2. Once the oil is shimmering, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly across the skillet and let it melt slightly.
  3. Let the feta cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
  4. Carefully crack each egg over the melted feta, ensuring they are spaced apart.
  5. Sprinkle eggs with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to enhance the flavor.
  6. Allow the eggs to cook without disturbance for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set and yolks are still runny.
  7. Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and red pepper flakes.
  8. Gently slide the eggs and crispy feta onto a plate and serve immediately.
