Asparagus and Soft Boiled Eggs

Intro
For me there is no better partner for asparagus than jammy eggs. The thickly set, spreadable yolk adds a soft and delicate texture and lusciousness. Zesty Lemon Herb brings the needed lemon and herb flavors. This is perfection.

Ingredients

3 raw eggs

1 bunch asparagus, washed and ends trimmed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 1/2 tablespoons Zesty Lemon Herb

1/2 lemon, cut into 1/4 inch slices

1 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

1. Turn broiler on high, set oven rack to the middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Set aside.

2. Bring a 2 qt. saucepan with water to boil over medium-high heat.

3. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water with a slotted spoon. Cook for exactly 6 minutes 15 seconds while maintaining a gentle boil.

4. Transfer eggs to an ice bath and cool for 2 minutes, this stops them from cooking further.

5. Gently crack the eggs all over and peel starting from the fattest end (which contains the air pocket). These can be made up to 3 days in advance.

6. Add asparagus, oil, Zesty Lemon Herb seasoning and lemon slices to the prepared pan. Toss well. Broil for 6-8 minutes, watching carefully.

7. Remove the asparagus from oven and transfer to serving platter.

8. Carefully slice eggs in half and add to platter. Season with salt. Serve immediately.
