Split the English muffin in half and toast it until golden brown.
Mash the avocado in a small bowl and mix in the lemon juice, salt (1/8 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/8 teaspoon). Set aside.
Finely chop the parsley and chives. Mix half of the chopped herbs into the mashed avocado and reserve the rest for garnish.
Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
Crack the egg into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny. Flip if you prefer a fully cooked yolk. Sprinkle the egg with a small pinch of salt and black pepper.
Spread mayonnaise over the bottom half of the toasted English muffin. Layer with the mashed avocado mixture, the cooked egg, and the slice of cheddar cheese.
Place the top half of the English muffin over the filling to assemble the sandwich.
Garnish the sandwich with the remaining chopped herbs before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Herbed Breakfast Sandwich!
