Lunch: Pork Roll Sandwich with Egg & Cheese

Ingredients

4 slices pork roll, such as Taylor (about 6 ounces)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 kaiser rolls, split in half and toasted
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 slices American cheese
Ketchup, for serving, optional

Instructions

Score the edges of the pork roll slices in 3 or 4 places. This will keep the slices flat and prevent them from buckling as they cook.
Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork slices in one layer and brown well on both sides, about 6 minutes. Remove the slices and place one on top of each toasted roll bottom.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and crack the eggs into the skillet. Break each yolk with the corner of your spatula. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. After about 2 minutes, flip the eggs and continue cooking on the other side. Immediately place a slice of American cheese on top of each egg. Cover with a lid to melt the cheese, about 30 seconds.
Place each egg and cheese quadrant on top of a browned pork roll slice. At this point you can squeeze ketchup on top if desired. Top with the other half of the roll.
