Bacon, Egg & Chicken Breakfast Sandwich

You might be a little confused by my choice of ingredients for this breakfast sandwich.

I was!  Let me explain....

My super cute husband came home from work this morning (he works graveyards) and wanted a breakfast sandwich like he gets sometimes from Chick-Fil-A when he has to work overtime.  Ever been to Chick-Fil-A?  It's good... greasy but good.  I always get their Grilled Chicken Salad while my husband enjoys a combination of chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, and waffle fries.  I honestly don't know how A) he hasn't had a heart attack yet and B) how he's not like 500 pounds.  Nope, that man can eat whatever he wants and nothing happens.  Me, sometimes I just look at food and I gain a pound.

So, he came home this morning and requested a breakfast sandwich with Chicken Tenders on it (insert my laughter right about here).   You know the saying right... a way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so into the kitchen I went. 

And so sorry this is the only picture I had of these sandwiches.  He was literally standing over me "waiting" for me to be done with my sandwich photo shoot so he could eat it.  Think I snapped 5 pictures before he was off and eating, lol!   

Bacon, Egg & Chicken Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients

1 teaspoon of butter (for cooking the eggs)

butter (for your english muffins)

2 large eggs

1 piece of american cheese

2 pieces of swiss cheese

3 med-large chicken tenders (we use Bell & Evans which are the best ever and we get them from Whole Foods)  

2 english muffins

3 strips pre-cooked bacon (we use the Kirkland Bacon from Costco) 

salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place your chicken tenders in the oven and cook per package directions.  Remove from the oven and cut in half , or to a smaller size so they will fit on your english muffins.  Set aside while you cook your other ingredients.  

Place your eggs in a bowl and scramble lightly with a fork.  Add salt and pepper to taste. 

Put eggs in a small skillet with 1 teaspoon of butter and cook until fried on both sides. 

This is the important part... butter your english muffins and place on a baking sheet with your precooked bacon.  Turn on the broiler and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until bacon is all bubbly and english muffins just start to brown on the edges.

Take out of the oven and pat bacon with a napkin to remove excess grease.  Put your cheese on the english muffins and add your bacon on top of that.  Top your bacon with your fried eggs and add the chicken on top of that.

There you go... you now have a Bacon, Egg & Chicken Sandwich! 

Serve immediately and enjoy!
