Equipment

  • 1 Cast Iron Skillet (or cast iron griddle)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Sourdough English Muffin Can use two slices of sourdough english muffin bread, a sourdough bagel or two slices of sourdough bread
  • 1 Egg Prepared fried or scrambled
  • 1 slice American Cheese Can use cheddar cheese, provolone cheese or swiss cheese slices
  • 1 Chicken Sausage (Round/Patty) Can use turkey sausage or beef sausage patty

Instructions
 

  • Heat cast iron skillet (or cast iron griddle) on medium- low heat. Butter or oil well.
  • Place a sourdough English muffin (or two slices of English muffin bread) on the griddle and allow to cook until golden brown.
  • Cook the egg (we like to do fried eggs cooked over medium/over hard).
    While the egg is cooking, brown up the sausage round. Because we use a frozen variety, we like to pull it out of the freezer and allow it to thaw out (or stick it in the microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel until warm but not completely cooked).
    Place on the skillet (or griddle) to brown up.
  • Assemble the sourdough breakfast sandwich when the items are fully cooked / brown.
    We layer it as such: Sourdough English muffin bottom, egg, American cheese, sausage, English muffin top.

Notes

  • Bread Options:
    Make sure the bread is toasted on the stovetop / griddle with butter. This gives the best flavor when pan fried!     This sandwich is also great served on a sourdough bagel, sourdough english muffin bread or sourdough bread.
  • Egg Options:
    We like fried eggs though you can scramble eggs and bake them into a round shape if you prefer.
  • Cheese Options:
    Use any type of sliced cheese on this recipe: American, cheddar, provolone, Swiss.
  • Sausage Rounds:
    Any type of sausage can be used within this recipe. We like chicken sausage - though a beef sausage patty or turkey sausage patty would taste great.
