How to Make Fried Egg Sandwiches With Pancetta And Arugula

  1. Toast bread slices to your desired level of crispness.
  2. Spread softened butter lightly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add diced pancetta and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove pancetta with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  4. Crack eggs gently into the pancetta drippings in the skillet. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes. Do not overcook.
  5. Carefully flip the eggs and cook for another 1 minute, or until the whites are fully cooked.
  6. Add arugula to the skillet and cook for about 30 seconds, or until just wilted.
  7. Place a fried egg on each slice of buttered toast.
  8. Top each egg with a slice of cheese, then the crispy pancetta, and finally the wilted arugula.
  9. Cover each egg with the remaining slices of toast and serve immediately. Enjoy!
