Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner, it's a simple yet satisfying dish that you can whip up in just a few minutes.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and let it heat up until it starts to shimmer.
- Crack the 2 eggs into a small bowl and beat them lightly with a fork or whisk. This step helps to ensure the yolks and whites are mixed together uniformly.
- Add a dash of salt and the 1/8 teaspoon of dried oregano to the beaten eggs. Mix well to combine.
- Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet. Let it cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs start to set but are still slightly runny.
- Just before the eggs are fully cooked, sprinkle the 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top. Continue to cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the eggs to a plate. Serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- Use fresh eggs: For the best texture and flavor, always use the freshest eggs you can find.
- Preheat the pan: Make sure the olive oil is hot before adding the eggs. This prevents sticking and ensures even cooking.
- Season to taste: Feel free to adjust the amount of salt and oregano to suit your personal preference.
- Low and slow: Cook the eggs over low to medium heat to avoid rubbery texture and ensure they stay creamy.
- Cheese choice: Grate your own parmesan cheese for the best melt and flavor, as pre-grated cheese can sometimes contain anti-caking agents that affect the texture.
Oregano Parmesan Eggs are a delightful way to start your day or enjoy a quick meal. The combination of salty parmesan and fragrant oregano elevates the humble egg to a new level of deliciousness. With just a few ingredients and minimal effort, you can create a dish that's sure to become a favorite in no time.
