Method
 

How to Make Pesto Egg Sandwich
  1. In a nonstick skillet, gently heat 4 tablespoons of pesto over medium-high heat until it becomes aromatic and warm.
  2. Lay out the English muffin halves on a baking sheet, and top one half of each muffin with a slice of provolone cheese.
  3. Broil the muffin halves for 2-3 minutes, watching closely until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Set aside.
  4. Crack the 4 eggs into the skillet over the warm pesto and cook for about 3 minutes until the whites are set; then flip gently to cook to your desired doneness.
  5. Top each muffin half with an egg, followed by a generous ½ tablespoon of chili onion crunch.
