Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Coarse salt and ground pepper
3/4 pound linguine or fettuccine
1 large bunch thin asparagus (1 pound), ends trimmed, halved lengthwise
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup grated Parmesan (1/2 ounce), plus more for serving (optional)
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions, adding the asparagus in the last minute of cooking. Reserve 1 cup cooking liquid; drain pasta and asparagus and return to pot along with butter and Parmesan. Toss until butter is melted, adding enough pasta water to create a thin sauce that coats pasta.
  • While pasta is cooking, in a large straight-sided skillet, heat 2 inches water over medium until a few bubbles rise to the top. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently pour into skillet. Cook until whites are set and yolks are runny, 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • To serve, divide pasta among 4 bowls, top each serving with an egg, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan, if desired.

This dish is perfect for a light and healthy lunch or dinner. I like to serve it with a side salad and some crusty bread.

I made this dish for my family last night, and they loved it! Even my kids, who are usually not big fans of asparagus, ate their plates clean. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to make it my own. I usually add some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have any flavor.

This is my go-to recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I always have asparagus and eggs on hand, so it's a great way to use up those ingredients.

I love this recipe! It's so simple and easy to make, but it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually serve it with a side salad and some crusty bread.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had some asparagus that was starting to wilt, so I decided to try this recipe. It turned out great! The asparagus was tender and flavorful, and the egg added a nice richness to the dish.
