Crack each egg into its own small bowl or ramekin and set aside.

STEP ONE

Add the olive oil to a medium nonstick saucepan over medium-low heat and allow the oil to get hot for 1 minute.

STEP TWO

Carefully add the eggs to the pan, leaving at least two inches of space between each egg.

STEP THREE

Allow to cook for about 2 minutes, or until egg whites are opaque.

STEP FOUR

Crack salt and pepper on the eggs. Use a thin spatula to carefully flip the eggs, one at a time.

STEP FIVE

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until egg yolks are well-done. Enjoy!

STEP SIX

Use a knife to pierce the yolk so it spreads across the egg white. This will reduce the cooking time once flipped by roughly one minute.
