Method

Eggs

  1. 1

    Cook the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up or until yolks reach your desired doneness. Remove from heat and set aside.

Confit

  1. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Confit

    In a small saucepan, combine the garlic cloves, olive oil, and thyme sprigs. Heat over low heat for about 30-40 minutes, until the garlic is tender and lightly golden. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Strain the oil and reserve the garlic and oil for serving.

Arugula

  1. 3

    Prepare the Arugula Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the arugula, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently until the arugula is well coated. Set aside.

Choice of Side

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sides

    Toast the sourdough bread slices until golden brown. Slice the avocado and season with salt and pepper to taste. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
