Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 breakfast sausages, casings removed
- 4 large eggs
- 2 Tbsp. half-and-half
- kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Tbsp. Chopped chives
- 1 avocado, mashed
- 4 slices sourdough
- 2/3 cup shredded Cheddar
- 2 Tbsp. butter, divided
Directions
- Step 1In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add sausage and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Drain fat and clean skillet.
- Step 2Whisk together eggs and half-and-half; add egg mixture to skillet. Gently stir eggs using a wooden spoon or spatula and cook until they just begin to set. Season with salt and pepper and stir in chives. Remove eggs from skillet and wipe skillet clean.
- Step 3Divide avocado mash between two slices of bread. Divide sausage, eggs, and cheese evenly on both slices. Top with remaining two slices bread.
- Step 4Return skillet to medium-low heat and add butter. When the butter begins to foam, add sandwiches. Cover the pan with a large lid (to help melt the cheese) and cook until bread is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until the cheese has melted and both sides of bread are golden, about 2 minutes more. Slice and serve immediately.
