Ingredients

  • 4 roma tomatoes halved lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chopped thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 slices thick-cut applewood bacon
  • 2 tablespoons bacon drippings reserved
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 whole English muffins split and toasted
  • 1 cup baby arugula

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°.
  • Arrange the tomatoes, cut side facing up, onto a rimmed metal baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and season with thyme, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
  • Roast for 25 minutes or until the tomatoes are tender and have shrunken in size. Remove the pan from the oven and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add bacon to a skillet and heat over medium. Cook, turning every so often, until crispy. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease.
  • Heat the reserved bacon drippings in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Work in batches, crack and fry 2 eggs at a time. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Top each toasted English muffing with arugula, bacon, tomatoes and a fried egg.
