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 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 ounces brie or Camembert cheese
12 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Using a rubber spatula, pull the set egg around the edges into the center of the pan. Repeat, drawing the spatula around the edge of the pan, until most of the eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
  • Scatter the cheese on top and let melt slightly, then fold the eggs over the cheese. Remove from the heat and let sit until the cheese melts, about 1 more minute.
