Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 bunch thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
4 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup crumbled feta

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Melt the butter in a 9-inch cast-iron frying pan. Add the onions and saute until they are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook until just softened, 2 minutes.
  • Whisk together the eggs, cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the feta. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus mixture and cook until almost set, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler and cook until golden brown on top, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

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.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH SMOKED SALMON, ASPARAGUS AND FETA CHEESE



Scrambled Eggs With Smoked Salmon, Asparagus and Feta Cheese image

I found this recipe on Women's health magazine website. I changed the cheese from goat to feta because I don't like goat cheese. I also changed when you put in the cheese because I did not want the cheese melted.

Time 13m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon butter
8 stalks asparagus, woody bottoms removed, chopped into 1-inch pieces
salt and black pepper
8 eggs
2 tablespoons nonfat milk (can also use soy milk)
1/4 cup feta cheese
4 ounces smoked salmon, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet or saute pan over medium heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the asparagus and cook until just tender ("crisp-tender" in kitchen parlance). Season with salt and pepper.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk with the milk. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper and add to the pan with the asparagus. Turn the heat down to low and use a wooden spoon to constantly stir and scrape the eggs until they begin to form soft curds.
  • Remove from the heat when the eggs are still creamy and soft and then fold in the smoked salmon and feta cheese.
