Parmesaneggs Recipes

CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS

Steps:

• Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil into a thin layer on the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
• Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat. To serve, season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.

CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS

Steps:

• Brush oil onto bottom of 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet; place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese evenly onto bottom of skillet; cook 2 min. or until cheese begins to melt.
• Slip cracked eggs, one at a time, over cheese, leaving spaces between eggs; cover skillet with lid. Cook 3 to 4 min. or until egg whites are almost set; remove lid. Cook eggs additional 2 to 3 min. or until whites are set, edges of whites are crisp and golden brown, and yolks are cooked to desired doneness. Remove from heat.
• Sprinkle eggs with remaining cheese. Serve with toast slices.

PARMALET (CRISP PARMESAN OMELET)

Steps:

• Crack eggs into a mixing bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon water. Whisk together until just beaten (do not overmix).
• Drizzle olive oil into 8-inch nonstick skillet. Brush evenly over the bottom of the pan. Evenly grate cheese into the skillet approximately 1/2-inch deep (or just shy of 1 ounce).
• Place pan over medium-high heat. Cheese will slowly start to melt. When cheese starts to bubble and turn golden brown, about 4 minutes, pour eggs evenly over cheese. Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Cover and let eggs cook on low until they are set, checking after the first 30 seconds. For 2 eggs, this should take about 1 minute, total cooking time. Remove pan from heat. Carefully use a spatula to fold "parmalet" in half. Transfer to serving plate.

PARMESAN EGG WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• You will be needing a lid for your skillet. If your skillet doesn't have a lid, you can use a lid from another pot that might fit or if all else fails, just grab a baking sheet and place it over the top of the skillet.
• Heat olive oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook briefly, just until fragrant. Add spinach leaves and toss, cooking until just wilted. Remove to a plate. Wipe out skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Add parmesan to skillet in an even layer, forming an oval in the middle. Let cook 30 seconds, then crack an egg over one edge of the parmesan, so the egg is half on and half off the parmesan. Cover skillet and cook until egg is just set. Remove lid and allow to cook another 30 seconds or so more. Use a spatula to transfer parmesan/egg to plate with spinach. Serve with a lemon wedge to drizzle over-top and a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper.

PARMESAN EGGS

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Butter an individual ramekin, then dust with 1 tablespoon of cheese.

PARMESAN EGGS

Steps:

• Set aside 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan in an 8-inch ring around the edge of a large nonstick skillet, leaving a 7-inch empty circle in the center. Sprinkle the reserved Parmesan in a line down the center of the circle, dividing it into 2 half-circles. Heat the skillet over medium-low heat.
• Gently crack an egg into each half-circle and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the whites are almost set and the cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover and cook until the cheese is browned but the egg yolks are still runny, 1 to 2 minutes more. Gently slide the eggs onto a serving plate. The cheese will crisp as it cools.
