Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 teaspoon chipotle in adobo sauce
2 slices sourdough bread
2 slices Cheddar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 slice bacon, halved
1 egg

Steps:

  • Combine the ketchup and chipotle and spread on the inside of each piece of bread. Place the cheese between the bread at an angle so that the edges hangover the sides of the bread. Butter the outside of one bread slice with half the butter. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Press the sandwich on, buttered-side down. Press until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Butter the other side (which is facing up) with the remaining butter and flip. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is gooey, this should all take 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the sandwich from the heat and hold.
  • Meanwhile, in a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until barely crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip the bacon, pushing the two pieces next to each other to form a square. Crack the egg on top, cooking into the bacon. Continue cooking until the egg is set, about 5 minutes. Open up the sandwich (use a spoon to help pull apart the bread) and slide in the eggs and bacon. Close up, slice and enjoy.

GRILLED FRIED EGG, BOLOGNA AND CHEESE SANDWICH



Grilled Fried Egg, Bologna and Cheese Sandwich image

I was craving fried bologna. Came across an Egg, Cheese Bologna recipe and tweaked it a little bit to make it like a grilled cheese sandwich! Delicious!!

Provided by suzymazz

Categories     Cheese

Time 10m

Yield 1 sandwich, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 slices bologna, any brand will do. slit the sides in 4 places to fry without curling (or 2 or 4 up to you)
1 egg
1 slice American cheese
2 slices white bread (I used Italian style regular bread)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • Prep:.
  • Slit the bologna in 4 places alond the side to 1/2 to middle (like a pinwheel) to prevent it from curling when fried.
  • Mayo one side of 2 slices of bread (I prefer to grill with mayo -- browns better than butter -- a trick I learned from a diner).
  • Add small pat of butter to grease a non-stick frying pan on medium. Add the bologna. Fry to your liking turning frequently as not to burn. Transfer to one piece of your bread on the un-mayo side.
  • Fry an egg. You will have plenty of grease to fry it inches Poke yolk. Flip. Add a slice of cheese to cooked side. Fry it through. Transfer to on top of bologna.
  • Put other slice of bread over. Mayo side out. Transfer to fry pan. Grill it like you would a grilled cheese sandwich. I put Frank's Red Hot cayanne pepper sauce as a condiment. (milder than Tabasco) -- use whatever condiment you want or leave it plain! Super YUMMY!

FRIED EGG SANDWICH

Time 20m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup bacon drippings
6 eggs
12 slices bread
Waxed paper

Steps:

  • Heat the drippings in a wide flat-bottomed skillet until they spit and smoke. Break in the eggs. They will immediately bubble around the edges, making then crisp. Break their yolks with a fork and swirl them around, so that they are scattered fairly evenly through the whites. This will cook very quickly and the eggs should be tough. Either push them to one side of the pan or remove them, and fry bread in the drippings for each sandwich, two slices an egg. Fry on one side only. Sandwich egg between bread slices. Wrap them in waxed paper.
