So I made this amazingly wonderfully easy breakfast dish this morning. You should definitely try! Here is the easy recipe! Enjoy!
From March 2010 Goodhousekeeping
Bacon and Eggs Over Asparagus
Serves: 2-3
Total Time: 30 min
Prep Time: 8 min
Oven Temp: 475
- 8 slice(s) bacon
- 1 pound(s) asparagus spears, trimmed
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) fresh thyme leaves, chopped ( I felt this out and used dried Thyme instead)
- Salt
- Pepper
- 8 large eggs ( I used 3 eggs since there were only 2 of us)
- 3 tablespoon(s) packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped ( I modified to a tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon(s) fresh dill, chopped
Directions
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. In a baking sheet, arrange bacon slices in single layer. Roast 8 to 9 minutes or until browned and crisp. Transfer to paper-towel-lined plate; set aside. Drain and discard excess bacon fat in pan, leaving thin film of fat.
- Add asparagus to pan in single layer. Roll in fat until evenly coated. Arrange in tight single layer. Sprinkle thyme and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper on asparagus. Roast 8 to 10 minutes or until asparagus spears are tender and browned.
- Carefully crack eggs, without breaking yolks, directly onto asparagus spears, staggering if necessary. Carefully return pan to oven. Roast 5 to 6 minutes or until whites are just set and yolks are still runny. Sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper on eggs. Return bacon to pan; sprinkle eggs and asparagus with parsley and dill. To serve, use wide spatula to transfer to serving plates.
