Cooking Steps
- Using a spoon, lower eggs into the boiling water, then reduce heat to medium-high. Cook for 7 min for a runny yolk, or 9 min for a set yolk.**
- While eggs cook, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add bacon. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, flipping occasionally, until crispy, 6-8 min.**
- Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining into wedges.
- Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Cut or tear ciabatta into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Once bacon is done, remove from heat. Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Set aside.
- When done, drain and rinse egg under cold water for 30 sec, until cool enough to peel. Set aside in pot, still submerged in water.
- Discard all but 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) fat from pan.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Reheat pan over medium.
- When hot, add chicken. Pan fry on one side until golden, 6-7 min. Flip, then cover and continue cooking, until cooked through, 6-7 min.** Transfer to a cutting board.
- Reheat pan over low. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Swirl pan until melted, 30 sec.

Pan fry on one side until golden, 6-7 min. Flip, then cover and continue cooking, until cooked through, 6-7 min.** Use the same pan to cook croutons in step 4.
