SKILLET EGGS WITH MUSHROOMS AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Put the asparagus and mushrooms in separate bowls; toss each with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 garlic clove, 1 teaspoon thyme and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place the asparagus and mushrooms on opposite sides of a grill basket and grill, tossing occasionally, until tender and browned around the edges, about 3 minutes for the asparagus and 7 minutes for the mushrooms. Remove to a large plate.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet on the grill; add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Crack the eggs into a bowl, then pour into the skillet; season with salt. Scatter the vegetables around the egg whites, avoiding the yolks. Cook, rotating the skillet, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 5 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the bread until lightly charred, 1 minute per side.
• Remove the skillet from the grill and sprinkle with parsley, parmesan and red pepper flakes. Serve with the grilled bread.

WESTERN SKILLET EGGS

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Whisk the half-and-half, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste in a small bowl.
• Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook until just softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the bell peppers; cook until the peppers are soft and the shallots are golden, 5 to 6 more minutes. Add the tomatoes, ham, bread, parsley and 1/4 cup water and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Make 8 evenly spaced indentations in the bread mixture with the bottom of a ladle or small measuring cup. Crack an egg into each indentation. Slowly pour the half-and-half mixture over the eggs. Bake, rotating the skillet a few times, until the whites are set, about 15 minutes. Top with parsley.

RATATOUILLE SKILLET EGGS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites, zucchini, eggplant and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the garlic is softened, about 1 more minute.
• Stir the tomatoes, beans (and their liquid) and 1/2 cup basil into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium low to maintain a gentle simmer. Make 8 wells in the sauce and crack 1 egg into each well; season each with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and top with the scallion greens and the remaining 1/2 cup basil. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Serve with the baguette.

SKILLET POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a large skillet, ideally one with straight, tall sides, with water to a depth of 1 1/2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Using a slotted spoon, carefully place the whole, uncracked eggs in the water and roll them around for 15 to 20 seconds, so they're evenly warm. Take them out of the skillet. Add the vinegar to the boiling water.
• Crack the eggs into the boiling water one at a time, spacing them apart (if they're too hot to the touch, wait a few seconds until they feel OK to handle). Adjust the heat to keep the water steadily and lightly boiling. Let the eggs poach until the whites are opaque and firm, and the yolks are set to your desired doneness, 3 to 6 minutes. Gently nudge the yolk with the spoon to check for doneness: Very runny yolks will wobble like a water balloon; standard runny yolks will feel soft but set; firm yolks will feel solid.
• Transfer to paper towels with the slotted spoon and gently pat dry. Butter toast and layer with ham and cheese, if using. Place poached eggs on top, season with salt and pepper, and top with another pat of butter, if you like.

SKILLET EGGS IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, just until it starts to brown around edges, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add tomatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and basil; simmer until tomatoes have broken down into a loose sauce, about 20 minutes.
• Make a well in tomato sauce with the back of a large spoon and crack 1 egg into well. Repeat with remaining 5 eggs. Season with salt and pepper and cook until whites are set and yolks are cooked as desired, about 25 to 30 minutes. Top with cheese and serve with sauce immediately from the skillet.
