Spicy Creamy Chickpeas with Runny Eggs and Prosciutto

This was so darn good. The recipe is from Bon Appetit. I did make some changes. No heavy cream and I did not have fresh rosemay.

This is my take on the recipe which got rave reviews!!

Ingredients-
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 15-oz. can chickpeas, rinsed
1 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 tsp. sweet smoked paprika
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
4 thin slices of prosciutto
Flaky sea salt
Focaccia

Method-
Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add chickpeas, tomato paste, and paprika to skillet and cook, stirring often, until coated, about 1 minute. Season with kosher salt and lots of pepper, and bring to a simmer.

Crack eggs into chickpea mixture and season them with kosher salt. Cover (a baking sheet works great if you don’t have a matching lid) and cook until white parts of eggs are set but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and drape prosciutto around eggs. Sprinkle with parsley, and sea salt, if desired, and more pepper. Serve with Focaccia.

What Did You Have For Breakfast?

Don't you love the weekends? I do. I usually sleep in, getting up around 8-ish. My usual wake up time is 5AM. After a leisurely cup of coffee, I like to make breakfast. We have eggs on the weekends. Scrambled, fried, sandwiches with cheese, poached... You know the usual suspects. This week Chris posted a video on my Facebook page. That video would be our Sunday breakfast.

Saturday - 
Early yesterday morning I came across a video of a Japanese Ham and Cheese Rolled Omelet. That is what we had for breakfast yesterday.

Chris said this was the best omelet he has ever had. My work was done. Thank you, goodnight everyone.

Here is a link to the video on Facebook - Click Here. It is easy to make once you see it on the video. I do not have a Japanese rectangular omelet pan so I used my regular omelet pan. This was such a light breakfast, it didn't feel like we were eating more than one egg each.


Sunday -
Today we had Omelet-in-the-Hole. When I saw the video the first thing I thought was Brioche. I made the Brioche Loaf yesterday. Found a super easy recipe at the blog Simply Delicious.
Here is a link to the Facebook video of Omelet-in-the-Hole - Click Here. I think any bread will work. I actually think Italian would be nice. But the Brioche tasted like French Toast. This was an exceptional breakfast. I made one with onions, celery, jarred roasted red pepper and chopped ham. The other one I left out the ham and added sauteed zucchini leftover from last night's dinner.

Have a good weekend everyone!
