Description

Oven-roasted vegetables are topped with a poached egg, and this recipe is perfectly portioned for a single-serving meal that could be served any time of day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 spears of Asparagus
  • 1 Yukon Gold Potato, cut into bite size pieces
  • 3 Tbsp Olive Oil, divided
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp Vinegar
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese, shredded
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Cut potatoes into bite size pieces. Place into a bowl of warm water and allow to soak for 10 minutes.
  3. Drain and pat dry with paper towel. Toss in 1 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil. Place potatoes on non-stick baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Snap ends off of asparagus. Toss in 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Place on baking sheet along side the roasting potatoes. Continue roasting vegetables for 15 more minutes.
  5. In shallow pot or skillet, heat water until just simmering. Add in vinegar to lower the pH of the water.
  6. Gently slip egg into the skillet and fold over egg whites to keep egg together. Allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes or until whites have become opaque. Remove gently with a spoon and allow to drain excess water.
  7. Dish asparagus and potatoes onto plate, top with poached egg. Top with parmesan cheese, lemon juice and season with salt and pepper if desired.
