EGG WHITE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND HOMEMADE FIG JAM SANDWICH WITH SALAD AND MAPLE BALSAMIC DRESSING



Egg White with Caramelized Onions and Homemade Fig Jam Sandwich with Salad and Maple Balsamic Dressing image

I eat this sandwich a coupla times a week - it's so good that you wouldn't even know it's diet food. See, caramelized onions are king when you're dieting: they're super low in fat, super cheap, and make anything taste great (...well, anything that tastes great with caramelized onions).

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 red onions, sliced 1/2-inch thick
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 pound figs, stems trimmed, cut into quarters
1/4 cup raw sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Extra-virgin olive oil
8 egg whites (2 whites per sandwich)
1 teaspoon piment d'espelette
Freshly cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon aged balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon pure maple syrup
4 cups baby arugula
1 cup fresh blueberries
8 slices flaxseed or whole-wheat bread (1/2-inch thick)

Steps:

  • For the caramelized onions: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and onions, separating them, and sprinkle with the salt. Saute for 10 minutes, then turn down the heat to medium-low and cook until the onions are deep amber in color, another 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the fig jam: Combine 1/4 cup water, the figs, sugar and lemon zest in a saucepan and simmer over low heat until thick, 45 to 60 minutes. For the eggs: Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil and use a paper towel to grease the pan and remove the excess oil. Crack 2 egg whites into a bowl and beat with a whisk. Pour the whites into the skillet and add 1/4 teaspoon piment d'espelette and some black pepper. Cook until opaque, 1 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining eggs to make 3 more omelets.
  • For the salad: Combine the olive oil, vinegar and maple syrup in a small jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal the jar and shake vigorously to blend. Toss the arugula and blueberries with the dressing. Toast the bread. Spread 1 tablespoon jam on each of 4 slices of toast and add 1 tablespoon caramelized onions. Top with the egg whites and cover with the remaining slices of toast. Serve with the salad.

White Wine Poached Egg with a Bacon-Frisee Salad image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Time 40m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 or 2 slices ciabatta bread, grilled with extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces bacon, cut into lardons, reserving at least 1/2 cup bacon fat for dressing (good for 4 servings)
2 medium heads frisee, trimmed and outer leaves removed and soaked in ice water with a big pinch kosher salt
1 head fennel, halved, cored and sliced paper thin on a mandolin, and add to ice water with frisee
1 heaping tablespoon Pickled Onions, recipe follows
1 handful frisee, trimmed and washed
2 tablespoons Warm Vinaigrette dressing, recipe follows
About 2 cups white wine, for poaching (or about 1-inch liquid in small saucepan)
Splash white wine vinegar, for poaching
1 bouquet garni (1 clove garlic, bay leaf, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon peppercorns in cheesecloth tied with butcher's twine with extra string to tie to handle of pot)
Pinch kosher salt
1 chicken egg, cracked into individual ramekin
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 shallot, minced (1 tablespoon)
1/2 clove garlic, smashed
Pinch kosher salt
1/4 cup red wine vinegar or big splash
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup warm bacon fat
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds red onions, sliced
White wine vinegar
Sugar
Kosher salt
4 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons mustard seeds

Steps:

  • For the salad: Place the bacon lardons into a saute pan and cook to render the fat and crisp. Remove the bacon lardons and reserve 1/2 cup bacon fat for the dressing. Drain the frisee and fennel and dry in a salad spinner. Set the frisee and fennel aside in a medium bowl.
  • To the same bowl add the reserved bacon, pickled onions, and warm vinaigrette dressing that has been spooned around the side of the bowl. Spooning the dressing on the side of the bowl helps from overdressing the salad itself. Toss to combine.
  • For the poached egg: Add 2 cups or about 1-inch white wine to a saucepan and add a splash of vinegar and big pinch salt. Add the bouquet garni to the saucepan and bring the mixture to a slow simmer. Once at a slow simmer, remove the bouquet garni. Carefully crack the egg into a ramekin. Gently slide the cracked egg into the liquid and poach. While the egg is cooking, baste or spoon some of the hot liquid over the egg to cook evenly, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove the egg from the liquid with a slotted spoon and place into a small dish. Season the egg with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • For serving: Place the toast slice onto a plate. Top with the salad and egg. Garnish with more bacon, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, extra-virgin olive oil. Drizzle with more dressing and garnish with fresh tarragon, if desired.
  • For the vinaigrette: Combine the shallot, garlic, salt, vinegar, mustard, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk in a few drops of the bacon fat and then begin adding the bacon fat in a thin stream, whisking continuously until all the oil is incorporated. Taste the dressing and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • For the pickled onions: Pack the onions in 2 (1-quart) jars and cover the water to come within 1/2-inch of the rim. Pour the water out into a measuring cup. Note the volume, pour off half of the water and replace it with vinegar. Add 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons salt for every 3 cups of liquid. Pour the vinegar mixture into a nonreactive saucepan, add the garlic, bay leaves, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, red pepper flakes, and mustard seeds, and bring to a boil over high heat. Allow the liquid to boil for 2 minutes, and then remove it from the heat.
  • Pour the hot liquid into the jars to cover the onions and screw on the lids. Refrigerate for up to 1 month.
