Ingredients

• Pancetta - 100 grams
• Eggs - 4 large
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Black pepper - to taste
• Salt - to taste

Steps

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Add the pancetta to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally.
3. Once the pancetta is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
4. In the same skillet with the leftover fat, crack the eggs gently, ensuring they do not break the yolks.
5. Cook the eggs to your desired doneness, approximately 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up or until the whites are fully set.

7. Serve the crispy pancetta alongside the eggs, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
