Split the English muffin in half and toast both halves until golden brown.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon strips for 3-4 minutes per side or until crispy. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low and melt 1 teaspoon of butter.
Crack the egg into the skillet, season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes. For a fully cooked yolk, flip the egg and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Place the cooked egg on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin.
Top the egg with the cheddar cheese slice, followed by the crispy bacon strips.
Close the sandwich with the top half of the English muffin and serve immediately.
