Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices bacon
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 piece cheddar cheese slice
- 2 slices bread (any type, such as sandwich bread, English muffin, or bagel)
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove the bacon and set it aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
In the same skillet, melt 1 teaspoon of butter over medium-low heat. Crack the egg into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolk, and cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the egg if you prefer it over hard, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Season the egg with salt and pepper, then remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
Toast the bread slices (or English muffin/bagel) until golden brown. If desired, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice for added flavor.
Assemble the sandwich by layering one slice of bread, a slice of cheese, the fried egg, bacon slices, and then the second slice of bread.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Bacon Egg Wich!
