Instructions
- Step 1: Halve the avocado lengthwise, remove the pit, and gently scoop out 1/3 of the flesh to create a well for the egg. Place the avocado halves cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until melted. Crack one egg into the skillet and cook for 3 minutes until the white sets but yolk remains runny.
- Step 3: While the egg cooks, fry 3 bacon slices in a separate skillet until crisp (3-4 minutes), then drain on paper towels and crumble. Season the cooked egg with 1/8 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
- Step 4: Place the poached egg on top of the avocado half, sprinkle with 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives and 1/4 tsp black pepper, then top with the crumbled bacon.
