3

When the pan reaches desired temperature, squeeze a slice of lime to flavor the bottom of the pan for the egg. Put the egg in and squeeze another slice on top of the egg. if you are making the scrambled variation, skip adding more lime. Sprinkle the ground cayenne pepper onto the egg and cook the egg.

If you are making over easy eggs, watch the egg carefully so that the yolk doesn't cook to much. For scrambled, make sure all ingredients are spread throughout the egg so that you don't end up with some areas being under seasoned, or a pocket of seasonings.
