Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 strips Low-sodium bacon
- 4 whole Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the low-sodium bacon strips to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Use tongs to turn them halfway through for even cooking. Once cooked, remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain the excess fat.
Carefully wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel to remove any remaining bacon grease.
In the same skillet, add unsalted butter and let it melt over medium-low heat.
Crack the eggs into the skillet, spacing them out evenly. Cook the eggs to your preferred doneness: 3 minutes for sunny-side-up, 4 minutes for over-easy, or longer for firmer yolks.
While the eggs are cooking, lightly season them with freshly ground black pepper.
Once the eggs are cooked, remove them from the skillet and serve with the crispy bacon strips.
Garnish the eggs and bacon with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-sodium classic bacon and egg breakfast.
