Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 piece large eggs
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 1 piece avocado
- 1 piece lime
Instructions
Gather all ingredients and tools: A non-stick frying pan, spatula, and a small bowl.
Prepare the garnish by chopping fresh cilantro. Slice the avocado and lime, set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Allow the oil to heat up for about 2 minutes until it’s shimmering but not smoking.
Crack the eggs open, one at a time, into a small bowl and gently slide them into the pan.
Reduce the heat to low and season the eggs with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the eggs until the whites are fully set, and the edges are just crispy, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. For a firm yolk, cover the pan with a lid for the last minute of cooking.
Once cooked to desired doneness, carefully transfer the eggs to a serving plate.
Top each serving with chopped cilantro and serve with slices of avocado on the side.
Squeeze lime over the eggs and avocado before serving to enhance the flavors.
Enjoy your Whole30 Huevo Frito fresh and warm!
