Ingredients

Sauce

½ cup mayonnaise Use a good quality, full-fat version for best flavor.
1-2 peppers chipotle peppers in adobo sauce Minced for smokiness.
1 tablespoon lime juice Freshly squeezed for maximum brightness.
1 clove garlic Minced for added flavor.

Sandwich Components

4 large eggs Crack directly into the pan; cooking until slightly runny for best texture.
2 pieces brioche buns Split and toasted until golden.
2 slices pepper jack cheese Add for spice and creaminess.
1 medium avocado Slice or mash before serving.
1 cup arugula Adds a peppery bite.
1 tablespoon butter For cooking eggs and toasting buns.

Instructions

Preparation

Mix together the mayonnaise, minced chipotle peppers, lime juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl to create the sauce.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add butter until melted.

Cooking

Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Split the brioche buns in half and place them cut side down in the same skillet, toasting until golden brown.

Assembly

Spread the prepared chipotle mayonnaise on the toasted side of each bun.
Layer one slice of pepper jack cheese on the bottom bun, followed by the cooked egg, avocado slices, and a handful of arugula.
Top with the other half of the brioche bun, pressing gently to secure the sandwich.

Serving

Serve the sandwiches warm, preferably right after assembling, garnished with extra arugula or lime wedges.

Notes

Experiment by adding fresh herbs, crispy bacon, or sautéed veggies for added flavor and texture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
