How to Make Sunny-Side Up Eggs

1. Heat Fat in Skillet

Begin by warming 1 to 2 tablespoons of your chosen fat, whether it's oil or butter, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. This initial step is crucial as the fat will prevent your eggs from sticking and ensure even cooking.

2. Cook the Eggs

Once the fat has warmed, promptly crack your eggs and gently drop them into the skillet. It’s best to reduce the heat to low immediately after the eggs hit the pan. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes, until the whites are set but still tender, and the yolks remain deliciously runny.

3. Season and Serve

Once the sunny-side up eggs are cooked to perfection, season them with salt and pepper to taste. Serve them hot, straight from the skillet onto a plate.
