Ingredients

  • 1 piece English muffin
  • 1 piece Large egg
  • 1 slice Canadian bacon
  • 1 slice Cheddar cheese (or American cheese)
  • 1 teaspoon Butter or cooking spray
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Split the English muffin in half and toast one half to your liking. Set aside.

Step 2

Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter or cooking spray to lightly coat the surface.

Step 3

Place the slice of Canadian bacon in the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes per side until warmed through and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, lower the heat slightly and crack the egg directly into the skillet. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the egg cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the white is set and the yolk reaches your desired level of doneness (e.g., runny or fully cooked).

Step 5

While the egg is cooking, place the slice of cheese over the toasted English muffin half. If needed, gently warm it in the toaster or under a broiler so the cheese begins to melt.

Step 6

Once the egg is ready, assemble the open-faced sandwich by layering the Canadian bacon on top of the cheese-covered muffin, followed by the cooked egg.

Step 7

Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and visual appeal.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Open-Faced Egg McMuffin!
