Instructions:
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Lay the bacon strips in the skillet, weaving them together to form a small bacon mat. To do this, lay one strip down horizontally, then weave the other two strips vertically over and under the horizontal strip.
- Cook the bacon weave until it becomes crispy on one side, about 5-7 minutes. Carefully flip it over and cook until both sides are crispy. Remove the bacon weave from the skillet and set it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease.
- In a small bowl, crack and beat the egg until the yolk and white are thoroughly combined.
- Pour out most of the bacon grease from the skillet, leaving just a thin layer to cook the egg.
- Return the skillet to medium-low heat and pour in the beaten egg.
- Allow the egg to cook undisturbed for a couple of minutes until the edges start to set.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg.
- Continue cooking the egg until the cheese melts and the egg is fully set. Carefully slide the omelette out of the skillet and onto a plate.
- Place the crispy bacon weave on top of the omelette, or you can put the omelette on top of the bacon weave, whichever presentation you prefer.
- Serve your Bacon Omelette Sandwich immediately while hot.
