Ingredients

  • 1tablespoon vegetable oil, divided
  • 4eggs
  • 2Kaiser rolls, cut across the middle
  • ½avocado
  • 2ounces Spanish chorizo, thinly
  • sliced on the bias
  • 2tablespoons store-bought green

  • 2slices Monterey Jack cheese

Preparation

  1. Plate Side: Bottom Griddle, Top Grill
    Griddler® Cooking Position: Open and flat, and
    then closed.
  2. 1. Turn on the Cuisinart® Smoke-less Contact
    Griddler®. Select Grill/Griddle and set to
    350°F.
    2. Once preheated, drizzle 2 teaspoons of the
    vegetable oil onto the bottom plate. Crack
    the eggs onto the bottom plate. Set the
    count-up timer to 5 minutes. At the 3-minute
    mark (when the egg whites are set and
    opaque), flip the eggs. When time expires,
    transfer 2 of the eggs to the bottom of each
    roll. Reserve.
    3. While the eggs are cooking, divide the
    avocado evenly between the inside surfaces
    of the 2 tops of roll. Use a fork to smash into
    an even layer. Reserve.
    4. When the eggs finish cooking, put the
    chorizo on the bottom plate and close the
    grill. Set the temperature to 425°F. Once
    preheated, transfer the chorizo to the top of
    the eggs in an even layer.
    5. Drizzle each sandwich with 1 tablespoon
    of the salsa. Top with one slice of cheese
    and the top of the roll with the smashed
    avocado.
    6. Brush the tops of each sandwich with the
    remaining oil. Transfer the two sandwiches
    to the Smoke-less Contact Griddler®. Close
    the Smoke-less Contact Griddler® and set
    the count-up timer. Lightly press down on
    the sandwiches for about 20 seconds. Cook
    for about 4 minutes total, until the cheese is
    melted and the tops are lightly golden and
    grill marks are visible.
    7. Remove from Smoke-less Contact Griddler®
    and let cool slightly. Cut in half on the bias.
    Serve with more salsa on the side
