Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Kosher salt
- 1 recipe Cheesy, Gooey Croques Monsieurs, hot from the oven
Directions
Warm the butter in a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat until it has melted. Crack in the eggs and cook until the whites are nearly set, about 3 minutes. Put a lid on the pan and continue cooking until the tops of the whites are set, about 1 minute; do not leave them covered too long, or the yolks will start to cook on top. Sprinkle with salt. Place 1 egg on each sandwich and serve immediately.
