Pesto Eggs and Crispy Mortadella Sandwich
Indulge in this breakfast sandwich that combines two of my absolute favorite things: the viral pesto eggs and crispy mortadella. I opted for a pistachio pesto to compliment the mortadella and cooked everything all in one skillet, so it was super easy.
Equipment
- Large Skillet (I prefer cast-iron, it goes from stove/oven to table)
Ingredients
Pesto:
- 3/4 cup basil leaves
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1/2 cup parm cheese
- Salt/pepper
- 1/4 cup pistachios
Components:
- 1 roll or bread of choice this would also be good on a bagel
- A few slices of mortadella
- 2 eggs
- mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Make your pesto. In a food processor, add pesto ingredients and blend. Taste test and adjust accordingly.
- Toast toll and add a few scoops of pesto in a skillet, leaving room on the other idk of the pan for the mortadella. Crack 2 eggs over top pesto and season with salt and pepper.
- Add a few slices of mortadella to the other side of the pan. As they cook, they will get smaller. Flip after about 4 min or when crispy. Continue to watch eggs and cook until desired
- Turn heat down to low and top mortadella with cheese and cover. The cheese will melt onto the mortadella.
- Spread pesto onto bread and add pesto eggs, cheesy mortadella and that's it! Enjoy!
