    Perfect Fried Egg Every Time

    A little bit of steam from just a tablespoon of water ensures that you'll never have an under- or overcooked egg white again.

    Ingredients
    • 1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter
    • 1 large egg
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Directions
    1. Heat a small cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and swirl to coat skillet. Immediately crack egg into skillet. Add 1 teaspoon water, reduce heat to medium low, cover, and cook for 1 minute. Remove egg from pan immediately. Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve.
