Steamed Egg Topped with Sautéed Asparagus, Tomatoes, and Fresh Crab

by Pam on March 11, 2014

I am loving this leftover crab we have! First we had crab legs with lemon then we had Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli topped with Asparagus and Tomato Sauté with Fresh Crab and Parmesan[1] for dinner last night. This morning I poached an egg and heated up the leftover asparagus in a small skillet. I added tomatoes at the last minute because they tasted so good with the crab the night before. Lastly I heated up the crab quickly then I placed a toasted mini bagel on the plate then topped it with the steamed egg , the sautéed veggies, and crab followed by some shaved Parmesan cheese. I can’t even tell you how good this breakfast was! The yolk made a terrific sauce for the veggies and crab and the whole combination tasted fantastic. I am so excited we still have leftover crab meat because I have a feeling I will be making this again tomorrow morning. YUM!

Add water to a pan, filling it two thirds full; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer. Coat a poaching cup (or custard cup) with cooking spray then place in the water. Break the egg into the cup then cover the pan with a lid and cook for 4-6 minutes or until the whites are firm but the yolk is soft.

While the egg is steaming, heat a skillet over medium heat coated with cooking spray. Add the leftover asparagus spear and the grape tomatoes to the skillet, cook stirring often, for 1-2 minutes. Toast the bagel. Add the crab to the skillet at the end very quickly just to heat up.

Place the bagel on the plate then add the steamed egg on top followed by the veggies, crab, and shaved parmesan. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Crab-Stuffed Sole – Rolling in Excitement

There is nothing exciting about sole. It’s cheap, easy to find, has a mild, unremarkable flavor, and…that’s about it. It’s the Pabst Blue Ribbon of seafood. Which means it’s the perfect candidate for jazzing up by stuffing with crab.


The sole filets I used here were a little smaller than I would have liked, and I probably over-stuffed them a bit, which will increase the chances they will split along the natural seams in the flesh, especially if you roll too tight. As you can see, it’s not a big deal, and doesn’t alter the taste, but I did want to point it out.

As far as the trick I mentioned for covering cracks; all you need to do is save a little of your lemon-mayo mixture, and near the end of the cooking time (when the seams begin to split), pipe it into any unsightly crevices. Then, turn on the broiler, and give the top a quick browning to hide the evidence. I think these looked fine as is, and for a regular dinner I wouldn’t bother, but for those fancier parties, it’s not a bad idea.

I hope it’s pretty obvious that this technique would work for hundreds of other filling, as well as with any thin, white, roll-able fish. These are also great since you can make them well ahead of time, and then just sauce and bake when you’re ready to party. I hope you give these delicious crab-stuffed sole filets a try soon. Enjoy!


Ingredients for 2 portions:
6 sole filets (12 ounces)
salt to taste
For the filling:
4 oz crabmeat
2 tsp minced green onion
1 tbsp finely diced poblano pepper
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp panko breadcrumbs
For the sauce:
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp finely grated lemon zest
cayenne to taste
– Bake at 400 F. for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through
