Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 245 g before cooking, which is about 120 g per serving.

Steps

Slice the peeled hard boiled eggs in half lengthwise.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little canola oil and a pat of butter.
Place the egg halves cut-side down into the hot skillet.
Sauté the eggs for a few minutes until the edges are nice and evenly browned and crispy.
Remove the eggs from the pan and place them on a serving plate cut-side up.
Top each egg half with a small dollop of mayonnaise.
Season with freshly cracked black pepper.
Finish each egg with a piece of crispy bacon.

Notes

The author notes that the bacon provides enough saltiness for the dish, so additional salt may not be necessary. This is described as a superior way to enjoy hard-boiled eggs, mimicking the flavors of a classic bacon and egg breakfast with added texture.
