Ingredients

  • Bacon - 4 slices
  • Eggs - 4 large
  • Butter - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Black pepper - to taste
  • Fresh parsley - 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional)

Steps

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip occasionally for even cooking.
  2. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on paper towels to drain excess fat.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan.
  4. Crack the eggs into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolks. Cook to your desired doneness, about 2-3 minutes for sunny-side up.
  5. Season the eggs with salt and black pepper to taste.
  6. Serve the eggs alongside the crispy bacon, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
