Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tablespoon harissa or pesto
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill or basil, chopped
- Avocado oil cooking spray
- 1 small tortilla
Instructions
- Heat the skillet: Place a small skillet over medium heat and let it warm up.
- Add feta cheese: Arrange the crumbled feta cheese in a circle around the outside edge of the skillet, allowing it to melt and form a golden brown crust; cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add harissa or pesto and egg: Spoon the harissa or pesto into the center of the skillet. Gently crack the egg over the harissa or pesto in the center, and cook the egg to your preferred doneness, about 3-5 minutes.
- Finish with herbs and remove: Once the egg is cooked and the feta has formed a crispy crust, sprinkle freshly chopped dill or basil over the top. Carefully lift the entire crispy feta and egg from the skillet using a spatula and place it onto a plate.
- Prepare the tortilla: Spray the skillet again with avocado oil cooking spray. Add the tortilla and cook until lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Serve: Slide the crispy feta and egg mixture on top of the warm tortilla and serve immediately for a delicious breakfast treat.
Notes
- Use fresh herbs like dill or basil for a bright, fresh flavor.
- Cook the egg according to your preference — sunny-side up, over-easy, or fully cooked.
- For a spicier option, choose harissa; for a milder, herbaceous flavor, opt for pesto.
- Ensure the skillet is not too hot to avoid burning the feta; medium heat works best.
- Use avocado oil spray or any neutral oil for a light, healthy cooking fat.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and taste.
