Baked Eggs on Cheesy Caramelized Onions
http://www.rachaelraymag.com/recipes/rachael-ray-magazine-recipes/dinner-for-10-dollars-or-less-recipes/Baked-Eggs-on-Cheesy-Caramelized-Onions
I made this last night for family dinner at my parents. Everyone loved it! We served it with a sde of bacon. :)
FYI - this serves 4 ...maybe 5. Don't let the 8 eggs fool ya! Also these eggs are really BAKED. If you like your eggs baked all the way through - follow the recipe. If you would like the eggs a little more runny - maybe cut the cooking time down to 15 min and then broil still 1-2 minutes.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 large leeks (about 2 pounds)—dark green stalks discarded, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise 1/2 inch thick
1 1/2 pounds onion, chopped
Salt and pepper
4 slices country white bread, crusts discarded, toasted
3 ounces swiss cheese, shredded
8 eggs
Directions:
1.Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 3-quart oval baking dish. In a large, heavy pot or dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the leeks, onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, uncover and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened and browned, about 8 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
2.Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with the toast and sprinkle with half of the cheese. Top with the onion mixture. Using the back of a spoon, make 8 deep wells in the onion mixture. Working 1 at a time, crack the eggs into a small bowl and pour them into the wells. Top with the remaining cheese; season with pepper.
3.Bake until the egg whites are set but still jiggly, about 20 minutes. Transfer the pan to the broiler and cook until the eggs are just set, 1 to 2 minutes.
