Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slice
- 2 pieces Egg
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Parsley (optional)
Instructions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Crack one egg into a small bowl to ensure no shell fragments, then gently slide it into the skillet. Repeat with the second egg if cooking both simultaneously.
Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste. Allow them to cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, or to your preferred doneness. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the bread slices and toast them until golden brown on one side, then flip them over and repeat.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each bread slice while still in the skillet and allow it to melt slightly (about 30 seconds).
Remove the bread from the skillet and transfer it to serving plates. Carefully place one cooked egg on top of each slice of bread with melted cheese.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your egg and cheese toast while warm!
