Method

Cooking Bacon

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon slices. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side until crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is crispy. Remove bacon from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

Cooking Eggs

  1. 2

    Prepare the Eggs

    In the same skillet with a bit of rendered bacon fat (or drain most of it and add butter), reduce the heat to medium-low. Crack the eggs into the skillet gently. Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the eggs.

  2. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    Cook the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes for sunny side up or longer for over-easy. If using cheese, sprinkle it on top of the eggs a minute before they are done cooking to allow it to melt.

  3. 4

    Garnish (Optional)

    If desired, sprinkle chopped chives over the eggs before serving.
