EGG SALAD AND BACON SANDWICH



Egg Salad and Bacon Sandwich image

On days I don't have much time to cook, egg salad on croissants hits the spot. It's also nice made with toasted bread or English muffins. Our family loves egg dishes of any kind. Luckily, my mom owns 30 chickens and keeps me supplied with farm-fresh ingredients.

BACON AND EGG SALAD

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 slices bacon
6 hard-boiled large eggs, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
1 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 ripe avocado, sliced, optional
1 Roma tomato, sliced, optional
4 croissants, lightly toasted, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • To cook the bacon using the "Mauro Method," line a baking sheet with parchment, overlapping each side 1 to 2 inches. Put the bacon on the parchment and bake until crisp and brown, about 20 minutes. This way, the fat will fry the bacon to a perfect crisp but not come in contact with the metal pan, creating a mess. Drain the bacon on paper towels and let cool. (Once the fat is cooled, use or just toss it. No mess!)
  • Crumble the bacon into a bowl. Gently mix in the eggs, mayonnaise, chives, mustard and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Eat alone, or build sandwiches with avocados and tomatoes on toasted croissants.

QUICK AND EASY BACON, EGG AND CHEESE



Quick and Easy Bacon, Egg and Cheese image

Any New Yorker will tell you a good bacon, egg and cheese (BEC) sandwich is the best way to start your day, and most likely you already have everything you need in your pantry to whip one up. The key elements to a great BEC are the melted cheese, scrambled egg that nestles perfectly onto the bread without falling off and salty crispy bacon. To make sure the cheese stays melted, we fold it into the center of the eggs just as they finish cooking so it stays warm. We found that by preparing eggs like an omelet ''package'' instead of scrambling them and topping them with cheese allowed us to adjust the size of our eggs to perfectly fit the size of our bread and hold our cheese in the ideal melted state. When you can't get to your corner deli or coffee cart, you can whip up this breakfast icon in the time it takes to walk out the door.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggs
2 tablespoons whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 slices sharp Cheddar cheese, about 1 ounce (see Cook's Note)
2 slices cooked bacon (see Cook's Note)
2 slices toasted white bread or 1 kaiser roll, split

Steps:

  • Whisk the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth and combined. Heat the vegetable in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Once the skillet is warm, pour the egg mixture in and allow it to cook undisturbed until the edges are set, about 1 minute. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the egg and allow the uncooked egg to run underneath. Once the egg is fully set, about 4 minutes, place the slices of cheese in the center of the egg. Carefully lift each side of the egg and folder it over the cheese to form a square package about the size of your toasted bread. Flip the eggs over gently, keeping the package intact, and allow the folded side to cook and melt the cheese, about 30 seconds more.
  • Assemble the sandwich by layering the bacon on 1 slice of toast and then topping with the warm eggs. Top with the remaining slice of toast and serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE SANDWICH



Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwich image

For Millie Peartree, a chef and lifelong New Yorker, the bacon, egg and cheese "is everything you need: salty, crunchy, creamy, filling." Because the iconic New York sandwich (which is also known as a "baconeggandcheese" or "B.E.C." when you're in a hurry), is made at thousands of carts and bodegas in all five boroughs, many locals wouldn't think to cook one at home. But if you're desperate for the resuscitation only a B.E.C. can provide, this homestyle adaptation delivers: gooey cheese, crispy bacon and eggs smushed between a buttered roll then wrapped tightly in foil. The only in-person experience you'll miss is waving goodbye to the bodega's owner and cat.

Time 20m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 7

Unsalted butter, as needed
1 kaiser roll, split (or 1 bagel, split, or 2 slices of bread, toasted and buttered)
3 slices beef, pork or turkey bacon (not thick-cut), halved crosswise
2 large eggs, beaten with a fork
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 slices American cheese
Ketchup and/or hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large piece of parchment paper or foil to the stove. Heat a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium. Grease the skillet generously with butter. Place one side of the roll in the skillet, cut-side down, and toast until golden, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the toasted half to the parchment, cut-side up. Repeat with more butter and the other half of the roll. (The second side will take less time, as the pan gets hotter.)
  • If you're using beef or turkey bacon, add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the bacon and cook over medium until browned and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes per side. As the bacon cooks, press it down with a spatula. (This helps the fat render, producing crunchier bacon.) Turn off the heat and transfer the bacon to the bottom roll. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat.
  • Pour the eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper and set over medium-low. Using a spatula, pull the egg toward the center and tilt the skillet so the egg runs to the empty part of the skillet. Repeat this all around until the surface of the egg is no longer runny but still shiny. Add the cheese on the top, tearing into smaller pieces for even coverage. Cook, undisturbed, until the top of the egg is matte, just a minute. Remove from heat, fold the egg in half, and then in half again. Transfer to the bottom roll.
  • Add ketchup and hot sauce as desired, then add the top roll and press down. Wrap in the parchment, smush again, and let sit for a couple minutes for all the elements to steam together. Cut in half and eat.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 slices smoked bacon

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Chop the bacon, hard-boil the eggs, and grate the cheese before you start cooking. This will make the process go much faster.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the eggs from sticking and make cleanup easier.
  • Cook the bacon over medium heat: This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: Cook them just until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny.
  • Season the egg salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the egg salad immediately: Or, store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
