Eggs

Method

Eggs Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, taking care not to break the yolks. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    Allow the eggs to cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove from heat and set aside.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In a separate saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add minced shallots and garlic, sautéing for about 2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 4

    Add Wine and Cream

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the wine reduces by half. Stir in the heavy cream and cajun seasoning, cooking for another 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. 5

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning if needed.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, place the cooked eggs. Top with shredded crab meat and generously drizzle the cajun cream sauce over the top.

  2. 7

    Garnish

    Sprinkle with sliced green onions for added flavor and presentation. Serve immediately.
