Poached Eggs Over Collard Greens & Shiitake Mushrooms Prep and Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
6 cups chopped collard greens
1 medium onion, cut in half and sliced thin
6 fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced medium thick, stems removed
4 fresh omega-3-rich eggs
about 4 cups water
1 TBS apple cider vinegar, or any white wine vinegar
Dressing
1 TBS fresh lemon juice
1 TBS minced fresh ginger
3 medium cloves garlic pressed
1 TBS soy sauce
1 TBS extra virgin olive oil
salt and white pepper to taste
Directions:
Slice onions and press garlic and let sit for 5-10 minutes to bring out their health-promoting benefits.
Bring 2" of water to a boil in a steamer pot.
Rinse greens well. Roll or stack leaves and cut into 1/4" slices and cut again crosswise. Let sit for 5-10 minutes.
Steam collard greens, mushrooms and onions together for 5 minutes.
While steaming greens, get ready for poaching eggs by bringing water and vinegar to a fast simmer in a small, shallow pan. You can start on high heat, and once it comes to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer before adding eggs. Make sure there is enough water to cover eggs.
Mix together lemon juice, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Poach eggs until desired doneness. This will take about 5 minutes, or just until the white is set and the yolk has filmed over.
Remove vegetables from steamer and toss with dressing. Remove eggs from water with a slotted spoon and place on plate of tossed greens.
