English Muffin Breakfast Strata

01Method

1. 1

   Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the ground sausage, breaking it apart as it browns, until fully cooked through and no pink remains, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and drain off any excess fat.

2. 2

   Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with grease.

3. 3

   Butter the cut side of each English muffin half and lay them in a single layer in the prepared dish. Distribute half of the sausage and half of both cheeses evenly on top.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, sour cream, and green chilies until combined; pour the mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese layer. Scatter the remaining sausage and cheeses on top. Cover the dish and refrigerate for 8 hours.

5. 5

   When ready to bake, heat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

6. 6

   Bake until the center is set and the top is lightly golden, about 35 minutes. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
