PEPPER 'N EGG HOAGIE



Pepper 'N Egg Hoagie image

I have hemmed and hawed about putting this recipe on here because a dear friend of mine that owned a sub ship in Pattsburgh, New York gave it to me. He's retired now, so I don't think he would mind. Now this is something that you just have to try before making up your mind about it. I was pregnant with my son when we lived...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 medium hoagie buns (only italian)
1 small jar of pasta sauce or you can use your own
1 medium red bell pepper
4 large eggs, eaten with a splash of cream or milk
1/2 c parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
drizzle of olive oil

Steps:

  • 1. Cut and seed one large red pepper, and cut into one inch strips. Coat skillet with olive oil. Cook peppers in skillet on low heat until they are soft. In the meantime, beat eggs with a splash of cream, salt and pepper and garlic salt. Pour eggs in with the peppers and stir until done, incorporating the pepper into the eggs. Spread buns or sliced Italian bread with pasta sauce and layer on the eggs. Sprinkle each with fresh parmesan cheese. I usually wrap mine in foil and stick in the oven for a little while to get the buns soft and warm.

SCRAMBLED PEPPERS AND EGGS



Scrambled Peppers and Eggs image

As in many Mark Bittman recipes, the idea here is more vegetables -- in this case, peppers -- than protein. It works because except for the jalapeño, none of the peppers is hot.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH PEPPERS



Scrambled Eggs With Peppers image

This dish, a classic piperade from southwestern France, is a great way to use those vitamin-rich peppers still abundant in farmers' markets. You can mix and match peppers here. Just be sure to cook them for a long time so that their juices infuse the eggs.

Time 45m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 large or 3 medium red peppers, or a combination of red and green peppers, diced (about 1 to 1 1/4 pounds)
1 Anaheim pepper, diced (optional)
2 plump garlic cloves, minced
Salt to taste
1 pound tomatoes, seeded and grated, or peeled, seeded and diced; or 1 (14-ounce) can, drained
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Freshly ground pepper to taste
6 eggs

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or heavy casserole over medium heat. Add the peppers. Cook, stirring often, for five minutes. Add the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the garlic smells fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomatoes, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and simmer, stirring from time to time, until the tomatoes have cooked down somewhat, about 10 minutes. Cover, and reduce the heat. Simmer over low heat for another 15 to 20 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the mixture is thick and fragrant.
  • Beat the eggs in a medium bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium, and stir in the eggs. Cook, stirring every few seconds, until the eggs are scrambled. Remove from the heat and serve.

Tips:

  • When choosing bell peppers, look for ones that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid peppers with blemishes or bruises.
  • To easily remove the seeds and ribs from a bell pepper, cut it in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the seeds and ribs.
  • If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan instead. Just make sure it's big enough to hold all of the ingredients comfortably.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the peppers and eggs. If you do, the eggs will steam instead of fry.
  • Season the peppers and eggs to taste with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings.
  • Serve the peppers and eggs immediately over rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish.
