Creamy Eggs on Toast
- Prep Time: 12 min.
- Cook Time: 7 min.
- Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 2 (1/2 inch thick) slices crusty bread
- 1 clove garlic, peeled
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 leaves radicchio, torn in half
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, or more to taste
- 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon whole milk or heavy cream
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 ounce Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 sprig flat-leaf parsley, leaves torn
Cooking Directions
- Use any bread you like: I prefer crusty Italian. After toasting, I rub a ton of garlic on for spice and drizzle olive oil to mellow out the flavors. Radicchio's bite is nice, but any leafy vegetable will do.
- I add the eggs directly to the warm pan (fewer dirty dishes). I poke the yolks and start stirring over low heat, slow and steady, like when I make risotto. If I lose my patience, I turn up the heat a bit.
- I layer the bruschetta-like toast with radicchio, add the creamy eggs and Monterey Jack (which melts instantly as it hits the eggs), then scatter parsley on top -- all mine to enjoy.
