Ingredients

• 1 large bell pepper (any color)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp olive oil or butter
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Optional: Fresh parsley or chives for garnish

Instructions

1. Slice the bell pepper horizontally to create two thick rings (about 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch thick). Remove the seeds and core.
2. Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
3. Place the bell pepper rings in the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes on one side until slightly softened.
4. Flip the bell pepper rings, then carefully crack one egg into the center of each ring.
5. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
6. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your preference.
7. Remove from the pan, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
