BIRDS IN A NEST



Birds in a Nest image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
1 large clove garlic, cracked
6 big, thick slices crusty Italian semolina bread
6 extra large eggs
1 (6-ounce) jar roasted red pepper
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup grated cheese, Parmesan or Romano

Steps:

  • Place a very large nonstick skillet over low heat. Add the oil and garlic clove into the skillet and gently infuse the garlic flavor into the oil. In the meantime, using a round cookie cutter or an empty can, cut out the center of all 6 slices of bread. Add the prepared bread slices to the garlic infused oil. Crack the eggs 1 at a time and drop them into their "nests" or, the center of each slice of bread. Drain and slice red pepper. Add a strip or 2 of red pepper to each nest. Season the birds in their nests with salt and pepper and sprinkle a little cheese into each nest. Gently turn the birds in their nests and turn off the heat. Let the eggs sit in their nests 5 minutes more, then transfer to a platter and serve.

LITTLE BIRDS IN A NEST



Little Birds In A Nest image

Provided by Leslie Land

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 slices filet mignon, each 1/3-inch thick, approximately 1 pound
8 paper-thin slices prosciutto
8 large leaves fresh sage
1 large eggplant, about 1 1/4 pounds
2 medium-sized zucchini, about 10 ounces
About 3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large clove garlic, minced fine
2 teaspoons orange zest, shredded on the 1/8-inch holes of the grater
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 1/2 cups peeled, seeded, ripe fresh tomatoes, chopped fine (or use canned tomatoes)
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup dry vermouth

Steps:

  • Pound the meat into sheets about an eighth-inch-thick. Place a slice of prosciutto on each, lay a sage leaf in the center and roll tightly, pressing constantly, tucking in the sides to make compact cylinders roughly three-and-a-half-inches long. Set aside, uncovered.
  • Peel the eggplant and cut the flesh into large julienned strips - about the size of big french fries. Set aside.
  • Cut the zucchini into julienned strips slightly smaller than the eggplant. Set aside.
  • Put two tablespoons of the oil in a large, nonreactive saucepan over medium-high heat and heat until it almost smokes. Add the julienned eggplant, zucchini and salt, stirring well. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the eggplant is thoroughly soft and the zucchini barely translucent, about 15 minutes. The mixture may stick at first but will loosen as cooking proceeds. Remove the vegetables with a slotted spoon and keep them covered in a warm place. Reduce the heat to low.
  • If necessary, add just enough additional oil to the pan to film the bottom. Add the garlic and orange zest and cook, stirring, for three minutes. Stir in the orange juice and tomatoes and simmer over medium heat for about 12 minutes, or until the sauce is thick.
  • After the sauce has cooked five minutes, warm four large serving plates. Put the remaining tablespoon of oil in a wide, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When it shimmers, add the butter. Put in the beef rolls seam side down and cook until they are seared. Turn with tongs and continue cooking, shaking the pan, for about five minutes, or just until meat is nicely browned. Interior should remain pink. Remove the rolls, keeping them warm.
  • Pour the vermouth into the skillet and boil, stirring to get up all browned bits, until reduced to about two tablespoons. Stir in the tomato sauce and any juices collected under the vegetables.
  • Spread the sauce evenly over the plates. Make nests of the mixed vegetables and arrange two beef rolls on each. Serve at once.

BUTTERSCOTCH BIRD NESTS



Butterscotch Bird Nests image

Part candy, part cookie, these candy nests are easy to make and the crunchy, salty pretzels are delicious with the sweet butterscotch coating. Kids can help by breaking the pretzels, scooping the nests and arranging the eggs in them.

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield about 30 nests

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup blanched almond slivers
10 ounces vanilla "make your own" almond bark
1 cup butterscotch chips
2 cups pretzel sticks, broken in half
3/4 cup unsweetened coconut chips (often found in the health food aisle)
1 cup candy-coated mini chocolate eggs (about 50)

Steps:

  • Heat a large, dry saute pan over medium heat. Add the almond slivers and toast, shaking the pan every minute, until they are fragrant and begin to darken in areas, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Melt the almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl according to package instructions. Stir in the butterscotch chips. Microwave another 30 seconds, and then stir until smooth.
  • Stir in the almonds, pretzels and coconut, coating evenly. Drop the mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, onto the prepared baking sheets. Nestle in 1 or 2 of the mini eggs. If the mixture starts to cool and become too firm to work with, microwave for 30 seconds and stir gently. Let the nests cool at room temperature until solid.

BIRD'S NEST BREAKFAST CUPS



Bird's Nest Breakfast Cups image

I got the basics of this recipe from a friend of mine and thought it was a great idea since these little nests can be made ahead, which I love. They are delicious, easy to make, and can be customized to your own tastes. I not only use the recipe as a delicious grab-and-go breakfast, but serve it to guests nestled into some lovely cheese grits, alongside fresh fruits and French toast made on a panini press. Oh, and don't forget the mimosas!

  • Julienne both the carrots and zucchini in a large bowl with a hand spiralizer. Then thinly slice the onion and baby spinach and toss into the same bowl, along with the eggs, Parmesan cheese, flour, panko bread crumbs, salt, and pepper.
  • Toss all the ingredients together using 2 large forks (or use your hands) until well combined. Using 2 forks, scoop a small amount, and transfer onto the baking sheet. Try to swirl and shape the vegetables into a small bird's nest. Try to give each one some depth, adding more on top to avoid them looking flat, like pancakes. Each fork-full leads to about a 3-inch diameter in size.
  • Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom and crispy around the edges. Keep in mind, if you undercook them, the nests will fall apart. Remove from the oven and use a spatula to transfer to a serving plate. Serve them warm with dipping sauce nearby.
