Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Feta Fried Eggs
  1. Start by spraying a small skillet with cooking oil over medium heat. Crumble the feta cheese evenly across the bottom of the skillet, ensuring you cover the edges.
  2. Allow the skillet and feta to heat together for approximately 2-3 minutes until the cheese begins to melt and turn golden.
  3. Gently crack the egg in the center of the skillet over the sizzling cheese. Sprinkle with dried oregano and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 3-5 minutes.
  4. While the egg cooks, heat a small tortilla or slice of toasted bread in a separate pan or microwave for about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Carefully remove the egg from the skillet and place it atop the warm tortilla or toasted bread.
  6. Drizzle with chili oil and sprinkle with pickled onions before serving.
