Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 English muffins
- 4 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 cup Canned clam chowder
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 cup Baby spinach
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
While the bacon is cooking, cut the English muffins in half and toast them in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown.
In a small bowl, combine clam chowder, mayonnaise, fresh parsley, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the clam chowder spread.
Wipe the skillet clean and melt butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny (or cook longer if you prefer fully cooked yolks).
Spread the clam chowder mixture generously onto the cut sides of each English muffin half.
On the bottom half of each muffin, layer 2 slices of crispy bacon, a slice of cheddar cheese, the cooked egg, and a handful of baby spinach.
Place the top half of the English muffin over the fillings and press gently to secure.
Serve immediately, optionally cutting the sandwich in half for easy eating. Enjoy your Clamdigger Breakfast Sandwich!
