This is what happens when a French salad collides with an iconic bacon-egg-and-cheese.

Ingredients

4 Servings

4

slices thick-cut bacon, cut into ½-inch pieces

3

tablespoons red wine vinegar

1

teaspoon Dijon mustard

1

teaspoon honey

½

teaspoon kosher salt, plus more

1

tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for buns

4

brioche buns

4

large eggs

Freshly ground black pepper

2

small heads of frisée

cup crumbled Gorgonzola

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until brown and crisp, 10–12 minutes. Transfer to paper towels. Reserve 3 Tbsp. bacon fat; wipe skillet clean.

    Step 2

    Whisk vinegar, mustard, honey, and ½ tsp. salt in a small bowl, then gradually whisk in reserved bacon fat. Keep warm.

    Step 3

    Generously butter cut sides of each bun. Toast buns, cut side down, in same skillet over medium-high heat, pressing gently to make contact with skillet, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

    Step 4

    Wipe skillet clean. Heat 1 Tbsp. butter over medium-high until foaming. Crack eggs into skillet; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, undisturbed, until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper.

    Step 5

    Toss frisée, Gorgonzola, bacon, and vinaigrette in a medium bowl to combine. Pile salad on bottom half of buns, dividing evenly, and top each with an egg. Close up sandwiches.
