Gourmet Breakfast Bagel Sandwich with Maple Bacon and Sriracha Aioli

Ingredients

• 1, sliced Country Harvest Bagels
• 1 tbsp Kraft Smooth Cremieux Peanut Butter
• 3 slices COMPLIMENTS Thick Cut Bacon
• 1 Large egg
• 1 Cheddar cheese slice, sharp
• 1 tbsp Maple syrup
• 2 tbsp Hidden Valley Salad Dressing
• 1/2 tsp HUY FONG FOODS Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce
• 1 tsp Everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss bacon with maple syrup and bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet until crisp, about 15-20 minutes. (Technique Refinement: Baking bacon yields evenly cooked, crispy results and easier cleanup. Maple syrup caramelizes the bacon).
2. While bacon bakes, prepare sriracha aioli: In a small bowl, combine Hidden Valley salad dressing and sriracha. Mix well and set aside. (Flavor Enhancement: This adds a creamy, spicy kick).
3. Toast bagel slices until golden brown. (Technique Refinement: Toasting enhances the bagel's texture and flavor).
4. Fry egg to your preference (over-easy, medium, or hard). Season with salt and pepper. (Flavor Enhancement: A runny yolk adds richness).
5. Spread peanut butter on one half of the toasted bagel. (Ingredient Note: While Kraft Peanut Butter works, consider using natural peanut butter for a less processed flavor).
6. Assemble the sandwich: Place cheddar cheese on the peanut butter side, followed by the fried egg and maple bacon. Drizzle with sriracha aioli and sprinkle everything bagel seasoning.
7. Top with the other bagel half and serve immediately. (Presentation: Cut in half to reveal layers; serve with a side of fresh fruit).
