What's the healthiest /unhealthiest thing you cook on the egg
Comments
-
Chicken is my answer to both.
Had some chicken breasts in my attempt to start a healthier diet.
So I made some duxelles in butter
Added some healthy herbs
Flambeed in some low cal brandy
Rubbed the breasts with olive oil and Dizzy Dust and tossed on the egg at 400*
Pulled the breasts at average 125*
Rolled out and cut the low carb puff pastry and added the duxelles
Set the breasts on the duxelles
Finished four and egg washed with a little butter..low everything by the way
On to the egg indirect
Off the egg after about 25 minutes
On to the plate over a sauce made of reduced chicken stock, gourmet cream of mushroom soup (low fat) mushrooms sauteed in butter, and low cal full cream
I feel so much better nowSteve

Brilliant chicken wellington! Never seen such a thing. The parsley makes it healthy.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

That was an old post but it is my daughter's favourite meal. It was in jest BTW

I got that part, but still thought it was a nice cook. It would have been entirely unhealthy without the green stuff.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

Unhealthiest is probably pizza. Most of the other things I make on the egg are pretty healthy. Grass-fed steaks, chicken, fish coupled with sweet potatoes and greens are all pretty great in the health department.Southern California

+1 for the pizza for no other reason except the mass of cheese I love so much. Healthiest? Fish in most forms. My beloved but oh so damn expensive Flank Steak.
