Ingredients

• 2 large Eggs
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Butter
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a small bowl, keeping the yolks intact, and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, but avoid letting it brown.

Step 4

Add the chopped garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low and gently slide the eggs into the skillet over the garlic, being careful not to break the yolks.

Step 6

Season the eggs with salt and ground black pepper.

Step 7

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny (cook longer if you prefer fully set yolks).

Step 8

Once cooked, carefully transfer the eggs onto a plate using a spatula, making sure to scoop up the crispy garlic.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy with crusty bread or on its own.
