Step 1

Step 2
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high and fry 2 eggs until whites are golden brown and crisp around the edges and set around the yolks (which should still be runny), about 2 minutes; transfer to a plate. Repeat with 1 Tbsp. oil and remaining 2 eggs.
Step 3
Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet. Add red pepper flakes and cook, stirring often, until lightly toasted and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add escarole to skillet, toss to coat, and cook, stirring often, until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and add fish sauce; season with salt and pepper.
