Egg and Bacon Sandwich

Ingredients

• 2 slices bread
• 2 slices bacon
• 1 large egg
• 1 tbsp butter
• ¼ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the 2 bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crispy, about 6-8 minutes, flipping once. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.

2. 2

   Pour off most of the bacon fat, leaving about 1 tsp in the skillet. Crack the 1 egg into the skillet and cook over medium heat until the white is set and the edges are golden, about 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle with the 0.25 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper.

3. 3

   While the egg cooks, toast the 2 bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

4. 4

   Spread the 1 tbsp butter evenly over the toasted bread slices.

5. 5

   Place the bacon on one slice of bread, top with the fried egg, and close the sandwich with the other slice. Cut in half and serve hot.

6. 6

   For extra flavor, add a slice of cheese or a drizzle of hot sauce before closing the sandwich.
