Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 slices Bread
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 slice Cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Arugula
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce until well combined. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 3
Crack the eggs into the pan, keeping the yolks intact, and season with salt and black pepper. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until the whites are set and the edges are crispy.
Step 4
Flip the eggs carefully if you prefer over-easy eggs, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside on a plate.
Step 5
In the same pan, add butter and let it melt. Place both slices of bread in the pan and toast them until golden brown on one side, about 1 minute.
Step 6
Flip the bread slices over. Spread the mayonnaise-Sriracha mixture evenly on the golden-brown sides of the bread.
Step 7
Place the slice of cheddar cheese on one piece of bread, and let it melt slightly while the bread toasts on the other side.
Step 8
Top the cheese with the fried eggs and a handful of arugula. Place the second slice of bread on top, sauce side down.
Step 9
Gently press the sandwich with a spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds to heat through.
Step 10
Remove the sandwich from the pan, slice it in half, and serve hot.
