Substitutions and Variations:
A lot of the recipes on Tiktok serve these eggs in a medium sized flour tortilla, so that is an option and it would be easy to pack for an on the go breakfast. Just wrap it up in foil and you are out the door. Make sure to bring a napkin for those runny egg yolks.
Avocado slices would be delicious added on top, or some roasted red peppers.
You can substitute the olive oil with vegetable oil, but you will need some sort of oil or it's tricky to get the eggs out of the pan.
These eggs are made Sunny Side up with a runny yolk. If you prefer your eggs more cooked, simply flip it after step 3 and cook both sides.
How to Make these Tiktok Viral Feta Eggs:
Step 1: Place a nonstick skillet on the stovetop over medium heat. Sprinkle the feta in a ring like shape, leaving a hole in the center for the fried eggs. Allow them to melt for about 2 minutes. If they start to burn, turn down the heat.
Step 2: Pour the eggs into the center of the ring. The feta should act like a barrier and keep the egg mostly inside. Sprinkle the salt and red pepper flakes over the top.
Step 3: Reduce the stovetop heat to low. Pour the olive oil around the outside circle of the eggs. Move the pan in a circular motion, so the oil gets under the edges of the feta and egg. Cover and cook for a few minutes on low heat, until the egg whites are fully cooked.
Step 4: Top the eggs with tomato, green onion and jalapeño. Serve and enjoy!
Expert Tips:
- I highly recommend using a non-stick pan for this recipe.
- Crumble the feta with your fingers or a fork into similar size pieces, so it melts more evenly.
- Getting the heat right can be tricky. Watch that the feta isn't burning, and if it starts to, decrease the heat to low.
- Crack the eggs ahead before adding the feta to the pan, so you don't have to rush and be careful not to break open the yolks when cracking.

Recipe FAQs:
A sunny side up egg means that it is served with a runny yolk and never flipped in the skillet.
I believe the best pans to use for eggs are non-stick skillets. They are so much easier to work with and always create the perfect eggs, no matter what style you like. I like using a large nonstick skillet to make eggs so I have plenty of room for flipping.
Serve right onto a plate, like in this recipe, and cover with toppings like tomato, roasted red peppers, avocado, jalapeño and/or green onion. You can also serve the egg and toppings over a warmed flour tortilla shell and eat it like a taco.
