Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Toast the bagel halves until golden brown, then spread with the salted butter. Set aside.
-
Step 2.
In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook, flipping once, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.
-
Step 3.
Add the ham slice to the skillet and cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes until heated through and lightly browned. Transfer the ham to the plate with the bacon.
-
Step 4.
Add the egg to the skillet and cook to your preferred doneness (over easy or over hard). While the egg cooks, assemble the sandwich base.
-
Step 5.
While the egg is cooking, place the ham on the bottom bagel half, followed by the bacon, then the pepper jack cheese slices.
-
Step 6.
Once the egg is done, place it on top of the cheese, then close the sandwich with the top bagel half. Serve immediately.
