Ingredients

• 4 slices Canadian bacon
• 4 Large eggs
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, chopped)
• 2 slices Bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

1. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

2. Add 1 tablespoon of the unsalted butter to the skillet and let it melt.

Step 3

3. Place the slices of Canadian bacon into the skillet in a single layer and cook for about 2–3 minutes per side, until they are slightly browned and heated through. Remove the bacon and set aside on a plate.

Step 4

4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet.

Step 5

5. Crack the eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks. Sprinkle the eggs evenly with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

6. Cook the eggs sunny-side up for 3–4 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. If desired, cover the skillet with a lid for a softer, slightly steamed texture.

Step 7

7. Just before the eggs are fully cooked, return the Canadian bacon to the skillet alongside the eggs and place a slice of Swiss cheese over each piece of bacon. Allow the cheese to melt for about 30–60 seconds.

Step 8

8. Using a spatula, carefully transfer the eggs and Swiss-covered Canadian bacon onto plates.

Step 9

9. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired, and serve hot with slices of toasted bread on the side, if preferred.
