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 c. shredded Cheddar
2 tbsp. butter, divided
Preparation
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.
