Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces eggs
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 slices white bread
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Place the eggs in a small saucepan and fill it with enough water to cover the eggs by about an inch.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 9 minutes.
Remove the eggs from the pot and place them in a bowl of cold water to cool for 5 minutes. This makes peeling easier.
Peel the eggs and mash them in a small bowl using a fork until they reach your desired level of chunkiness.
Mix the mashed eggs with mayonnaise, chives, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place the buttered side of one slice onto a skillet over medium heat.
Spoon the egg and chive mixture onto the unbuttered side of the bread in the skillet, spreading it evenly.
Top with the second slice of bread, with the buttered side facing up.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down lightly, until the bread is golden brown and toasted.
Remove from the skillet, slice the sandwich in half if desired, and serve warm.
