Broccoli Rabe with Poached Eggs
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
I bunch broccoli rabe, stemmed, washed and coarsely chopped
2 large eggs
Salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
DIRECTIONS
Heat the olive oil in a medium size sauté pan with slopping sides. Add the garlic slices and cook, pressing on the garlic until it turns golden brown. Add the broccoli rabe and cook, stirring occasionally until it wilts.
Make two small indentations in the center of the broccoli rabe and crack an egg into each indentation. Cover with lid and cook over medium heat until the egg yolks are set but not hard and the whites have solidified.
Slip the mixture out onto a serving dish and sprinkle with the cheese. The eggs should be runny when cut into. Serve warm. Serves 2.
