Ingredients
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1/4 cup kalamata olives, pitted and halved
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried oregano)
- 2 tbsp heavy cream or half-and-half
- 1/4 tsp sea salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- 1
Crack eggs into a bowl. Add cream, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Whisk vigorously until eggs are fully combined and slightly frothy.
- 2
Heat butter and olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat. The butter should foam but not brown.
- 3
Pour in the egg mixture. Let sit undisturbed for 20-30 seconds to allow the bottom to begin setting.
- 4
Using a spatula, gently push eggs from the edges toward the center, creating soft curds. Rotate the pan as needed for even cooking.
- 5
When eggs are about 70% set (still slightly wet on top), add sun-dried tomatoes and olives. Gently fold them into the eggs.
- 6
Remove from heat while eggs are still slightly wet - they will continue cooking from residual heat. This prevents overcooking.
- 7
Transfer to plates. Crumble feta cheese generously over the top. Garnish with fresh dill and parsley.
- 8
Serve immediately with crusty bread or pita on the side. A squeeze of lemon juice on top adds brightness.
Pro Tips
💡
Use a cast iron or non-stick pan for the best results - eggs release easily without sticking.
💡
Keep eggs moving in the pan for the fluffiest texture - constant stirring makes them creamy.
💡
Room temperature eggs cook more evenly than cold ones from the fridge.
