1
Prepare the Bacon
In a large skillet, place the bacon slices in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan.
2
Cook the Bacon
Heat the skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon for about 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and browned to your liking.
3
Drain the Bacon
Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

4
Prepare the Skillet
In the same skillet used for bacon, drain excess bacon fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon for flavor. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and heat over medium-low.
5
Cook the Eggs
Crack the eggs into the skillet. For sunny-side up, cook until whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes. For over-easy, gently flip the eggs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the yolk is still slightly runny.
6
Season the Eggs
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the eggs to taste.
