If you want to cook a fried egg in the microwave, you need to pierce the yolk with a tooth pick or a pointed object (knife tip, fork) so the yolk does not explode, but it is not scrambling the egg and it cooks the yolk completely not sunny side up. And you don't have to turn it. The time would be probably 45 seconds. You coat a microwave safe container (I use pyrex or corningware with non-stick spray or a little butter, break the egg into the bowl and use the toothpick to puncture the yolk, cover the bowl and cook the egg for 30 seconds and see if the yolk is done enough and if it needs more time, go by 15 second increments until it is the way I want it.

I use a tiny pan enough for the one egg, and at about 3 minutes, I can just pick up the small pan and flip or just turn it onto the toast which catches it just fine. I don't get my heat going too high, sort of medium, and put pepper or salt on the egg while it's cooking. works quite well every time.
