# Ingredient List:

01 - 6 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
02 - 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
03 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or kewpie mayonnaise
04 - 1/2 tablespoon sriracha sauce

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Combine the chopped hard-boiled eggs with shredded mozzarella, mayonnaise, sriracha, chives, kosher salt, and cracked black pepper in a mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly until evenly incorporated.
02 - Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray. Place approximately 1/4 cup portions of the egg mixture onto the skillet and flatten slightly. Cook each portion for 1 to 2 minutes per side, flipping carefully, until golden brown and crisp. Avoid overcooking to prevent excessive melting and difficulty transferring.
03 - Toast one slice of bread and spread with mashed or sliced avocado. Arrange the freshly pan-fried crispy egg salad on top and garnish with jalapeño slices if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
