Yield: Makes 2 servings
Ingredients:
1
large egg, at room temperature*
1/2
pound broccoli (about 1/2 head), broken into florets, with stems peeled and cut 1/4-inch thick
4
teaspoons unsalted butter
1
tablespoon chopped shallots
1/4
cup bread crumbs
2
tablespoons chopped parsley
1/4
teaspoon salt
1/8
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preparation:
1.
Bring enough salted water to a boil in pot to cover egg by 2 inches. Gently lower egg into water and reduce heat to vigorous simmer. Cook 13 minutes. Drain and run cold water over egg until cooled; peel and coarsely chop.
2.
Cook broccoli in boiling salted water in medium pot 4 to 6 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain and reserve.
3.
Meanwhile, melt butter in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and cook 1 to 2 minutes until butter and shallots begin to brown. Add bread crumbs, stirring until browned, about 1 minute. Remove pan from stove; stir in parsley, salt and pepper to blend.
4.
Sprinkle crumb mixture over broccoli, topping with chopped egg. Serve at once.
