As we all feebly return to our regularly scheduled Monday and recover from what I'm sure was an incredibly indulging, convivial weekend; I thought I'd share a simple breakfast or breakfast for dinner dish that is simple and will right all the wrongs (at least nutritionally) that happened this 4th!
These aren't just your ordinary fried eggs - these luscious eggs have a little somethin' somethin' (hint: a luxurious pan sauce) that will have you wondering why you didn't think of this simple egg hack!
Ingredients for one:
2 farm fresh, organic, free range eggs (crack into a small bowl)
1 1/2 tablespoons European butter, divided
2 tablespoons Lucini Pinot Grigio wine vinegar
Truffle salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Method:
Heat a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and heat until melted. Gently add the eggs to pan, season with truffle salt, and pepper; cook to your liking. Using a spatula, remove the eggs and place on a warm plate. Return the saute pan to the flame. Add the wine vinegar and reduce by half, finish with a pat of butter. Drizzle the pan sauce over the eggs and serve with crusty bread to soak up all of the deliciousness!
Although, I made this for my Monday blues breakfast and served it with crusty bread, orange juice, and strong Irish black tea...
I would be even more excited to have this for dinner with a few tweaks-- how about a French baguette, a simple salad with frisee, baby greens, a squeeze of Meyer lemon, a drizzle of olive oil, perfectly seasoned with salt and pepper? And to insure an even better start to the week, I would most definitely top it off with a glass of sparkling wine!
Bon appetit fellow gourmands! Remember...Friday is only 4 days away!
Cheers,
Allison
