Spanish Garlic Eggs | Possibly the BEST Fried Eggs Recipe
These Spanish Garlic Eggs, known as Huevos con Ajos, are possibly the BEST fried eggs ever. We´re talking eggs fried in extra virgin olive oil, with a ton of garlic and then topped off with a parsley and garlic sauce.

This recipe is inspired from a recent trip I took to the beautiful town of Estepona. I found this dish at a local family-owned restaurant and it truly blew me away. You can serve these eggs for any meal of the day and they work great next to some roasted potatoes and a crunchy baguette.

The secret to this recipe is to use a GREAT Extra Virgin Olive Oil. As it´s what really flavors the entire dish. I used a Spanish one from the Georgetown olive oil company. Truly one of my personal favorite Spanish olive oils.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: When you add the sliced garlic into the pan, just sautee until lightly golden brown. If you brown them too much, they will get a bitter flavor. Once you add the eggs, place the sauteed slices of garlic over the eggs, so they stop cooking.
