Roasted Asparagus and Prosciutto 2012, Barefoot Contessa Foolproof, All Rights Reserved (5 Stars) Ingredients
    1 pound  fresh asparagus,, (not too thin)
      Good olive oil
      Kosher salt
      freshly ground black pepper
    6 large slices  prosciutto
    1 1/2 tablespoons  unsalted butter
3 extra-large eggs Easy Hollandaise Sauce, recipe follows Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. If the asparagus are thick, peel them halfway up the stalks. Cut off and discard the bottom third of the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a single layer on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, until the stalks are just tender. Meanwhile, place the prosciutto in a single layer on another sheet pan and roast in the same oven for 5 minutes. Melt the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat and wait until the bubbles almost subside. Crack the eggs into the skillet, keeping them separate, if possible. Sprinkle the eggs generously with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat until the whites are cooked but the yolks are still runny. Don't turn them over! Arrange the asparagus on 3 plates. Place 2 slices of prosciutto on top of each pile, drizzle with hollandaise, and place a fried egg on top of the prosciutto. Serve hot. Easy Hollandaise Sauce: 2 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature
    1 1/2 tablespoons  freshly squeezed lemon juice
    3/4 teaspoon  kosher salt
    1/4 teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
    Pinch  cayenne pepper
    6 tablespoons (3/4 stick)  unsalted butter

Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in the jar of a blender and process on low for 15 seconds. Melt the butter in a small saucepan until it is sizzling hot. Remove the small clear insert in the top of the blender. With the blender on low, slowly add the hot butter to the egg and lemon mixture and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is very thick. Use immediately. Yield: makes 1/2 cup.

Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served use shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, by pasteurization or another approved method.
