Ingredients
1 English muffin, split
2 slices deli ham
1 large egg
1 slice American cheese
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Butter the cut sides of the English muffin and toast in a skillet or toaster until golden brown.
In the same skillet over medium heat, cook the ham slices for about 1 minute per side until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
Add the remaining butter to the skillet. Crack the egg into the skillet and fry until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Place the cheese on one half of the toasted muffin. Top with the ham slices, then the fried egg. Close with the other muffin half.
Serve immediately.
Tips
For a firmer yolk, cook the egg for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Add a slice of tomato or avocado for extra freshness.
