Spanish Fried Eggs – Paleo Style

This post may contain affiliate links, read our disclosure policy.

These Spanish Fried Paleo Eggs make my unbelievably happy.  I’ve always been partial to sunny side up eggs (would you like an egg on that?  yes, please!) – but since moving away from Teflon and non-stick pans, the perfect fried egg has continued to elude me.  Until now!

It took an abundance of bacon fat and a happy accident of not paying attention to just how much I put in the pan to figure it out, but boy am I glad this happened.  The Spanish fried egg is just an egg fried in a whole lot of olive oil.  So to paleo it up?  Use bacon fat!  Easy as can be.  No stickage, just pure eggy deliciousness.
