SKILLET-BAKED EGGS AND ASPARAGUS



Skillet-Baked Eggs and Asparagus image

Asparagus and eggs have an affinity for each other. The voluptuous yolk softens and smoothes the grassy sharpness of the vegetable, while the asparagus brightens up the dull richness of the egg. The pair's most classic expression is asparagus hollandaise, but that is too fussy and time-consuming a preparation for a regular home-cooked breakfast. This dish combines the flavors in a time- and cook-friendly way.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil, more for drizzling
3/4 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced
8 large eggs
6 tablespoons roughly chopped soft herbs like basil, cilantro, chives or parsley use at least 2
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt
black pepper, to taste
Lemon wedges, for serving
Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 300 degrees. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the asparagus and the scallions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is browned and tender.
  • Whisk together the eggs, 4 tablespoons of the herbs, and cream. Whisk in Parmesan, salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over asparagus and place the skillet in the oven.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, until set, but still slightly jiggly in the center. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. It is best warm, not hot.
  • Squeeze one or two lemon wedges over it, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and remaining herbs. Cut into wedges.

ASPARAGUS, EGG, AND ONION SANDWICH



Asparagus, Egg, and Onion Sandwich image

Categories     Bread     Sandwich     Egg     Onion     Breakfast     Picnic     Lunch     Asparagus     Spring     Simmer

Yield makes 2 hero sandwiches, or 4 sandwiches on rolls

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1/2 bunch asparagus, stems peeled and cut into 2-inch lengths
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs
4 ounces mild provola, shredded
Two 6-inch lengths semolina bread, or 4 crusty rolls, lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the onion, asparagus, and 1/4 cup water. Season with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, cover, and let simmer until the asparagus is tender, about 10 minutes, until the water has evaporated.
  • Beat eggs with the remaining salt. Pour the eggs into the skillet, and cook, stirring, until just beginning to set but still wet, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with the grated provola, then cover and cook until cheese melts, about 1 minute more. Uncover, stir to mix in the cheese, and serve on the toasted bread or rolls.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted or have woody ends.
  • Trim the asparagus: Cut off the tough, woody ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by snapping them off or using a sharp knife.
  • Cook the asparagus properly: Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, roasting, and grilling. The best way to cook asparagus is to cook it until it is tender-crisp. This will take about 2-3 minutes if you are boiling or steaming the asparagus, and 10-12 minutes if you are roasting or grilling it.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs in this sandwich should be cooked until they are just set. This will take about 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
  • Use a good quality bread: The bread you use for this sandwich is important. Choose a bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings, but not too thick or dense. A good option is a whole wheat bread or a sourdough bread.
  • Add your favorite toppings: This sandwich is delicious on its own, but you can also add your favorite toppings. Some good options include cheese, avocado, tomato, or bacon.

Conclusion:

The asparagus, egg, and onion sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for lunch or dinner. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
