Spicy Fire-Roasted Fried Eggs with Feta and Chili Oil

INGREDIENTS

1 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil

2 fresh garlic cloves, minced or pressed

1/2 tsp hot smoked paprika

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste

1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled

4 large eggs

1-2 tablespoons chili oil (optional)

Chopped fresh dill and parsley, for garnish

Preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat on a grill, stove, or fire. Add avocado oil or olive oil to the skillet.

Add the minced garlic, hot smoked paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, sea salt, and fresh ground pepper to the skillet. Cook for about a minute until fragrant.

Crumble the feta cheese into the pan and drizzle with chili oil, if using. Once the feta begins melting and bubbling, crack the eggs into the skillet. Season the eggs with additional black pepper and red pepper flakes.

Cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped fresh dill or other herbs.
