Bull's-Eyes with Mushrooms and Fontina
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 3/4 pound mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon hot paprika
- 8 slices of whole wheat bread, with a 2-inch square cut out of each center
- 8 large eggs
- 2 ounces Fontina or Monterey Jack cheese, cut into 8 slices
- 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons prepared salsa
- Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet.
- Add the shallots and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes.
- Raise the heat to high and add the mushrooms and lemon juice.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their liquid.
- Season with salt and pepper and cook until the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms start to brown, about 4 minutes.
- Add the paprika and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl.
- Wipe out the skillet and melt 1 more tablespoon of the butter.
- Arrange 2 slices of hollowed-out bread in the skillet and break an egg into each hole.
- Cook over low heat until the bread is well-browned on the bottom and the yolks are partially set, about 3 minutes.
- Turn the bread over and cook the second sides until the yolks are barely set, about 3 more minutes.
- Turn the bread again, set a slice of cheese on each toast and season with salt and pepper.
- Spread 1 heaping teaspoon of salsa on 1 of the toasts and cover with 1/3 cup of the mushrooms; invert the other toast on top, cheese side down.
- Transfer the sandwich to a plate and repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more bull's eyes.
