Ingredients
- 4 sausage patties
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slider buns
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat to ensure even cooking of the sausage patties.
- Place the sausage patties in the skillet and cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Ensure they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
- While the sausage is cooking, crack the eggs into a separate non-stick pan or griddle. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Cook the eggs sunny-side up or over-easy, depending on your preference. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
- If using cheese, place a slice of cheese on top of each sausage patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt slightly.
- Lightly toast the slider buns in a toaster or on the same skillet to add a crisp texture and warm them through.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a cooked sausage patty on the bottom half of each bun, then topping with a fried egg.
- Add optional additional seasonings or condiments like hot sauce, ketchup, or mustard if desired.
- Close the sliders with the top bun and serve immediately while hot and fresh.
Tips
- Temperature is Key: Use a meat thermometer to ensure your sausage patties reach 160°F for food safety and optimal flavor.
- Egg Perfection: For the best texture, cook eggs just until the whites are set but yolks remain slightly runny - this creates a delicious, creamy element when you bite into the slider.
- Cheese Hack: If using cheese, let it melt directly on the hot sausage patty for maximum flavor integration.
- Toasting Tip: Lightly butter the buns before toasting for an extra layer of richness and crispness.
- Meal Prep Friendly: You can prepare the components ahead of time and quickly assemble these sliders, making them perfect for busy mornings.
- Customize Your Slider: Experiment with different cheese types, add bacon, or include a splash of hot sauce to make the recipe your own.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with fresh fruit or a quick side of hash browns for a complete breakfast experience.
