Smoked Paprika Fried Eggs Recipes

SMOKED PAPRIKA DUTCH BABY WITH SERRANO HAM AND FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Make the Dutch baby: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet or other large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined. Add the flour, paprika, and salt and whisk until smooth. Pour the batter into the hot skillet and bake until the pancake puffs up around the edge and turns very golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the Dutch baby is baking, prepare the toppings: Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and fry until the whites are set and the yolks are just set, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• When the Dutch baby has finished baking, remove it from the oven--it will begin to deflate shortly after it comes out. Garnish immediately, arranging the fried eggs and ham on top, then sprinkling with chives and a few pinches of smoked paprika.

SMOKY GRILLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Slice each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise. Scoop the egg yolks into a medium bowl and mash with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, adobo sauce and paprika and stir together until completely combined; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Lightly brush the egg whites on the cut sides with mayonnaise. Put the eggs cut-side down in a grill basket; close and secure the basket. Place the basket directly over the hot coals and cook until grill marks appear on the egg whites, 30 seconds to a minute. Transfer the whites to a serving plate and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• When ready to serve, pipe some of the yolk mixture into each egg white and dust with a little paprika.

SPINACH WITH CHICKPEAS AND FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add 1 garlic clove. Stir until beginning to turn golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Add spinach to pot. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Cook until spinach is wilted but still bright green, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl; set aside. Wipe out pot.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in same pot over medium heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add onion and 3 garlic cloves. Cook, stirring often, until onion is softened, 3-4 minutes.
• Add cumin and paprika; stir until cumin is toasted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add chickpeas and tomatoes; stir to coat. Cook until tomatoes start to caramelize and chickpeas begin to brown, 8-10 minutes. Add 3 cups broth; bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, occasionally mashing some chickpeas with the back of a spoon or a potato masher, until sauce is thickened, 15-20 minutes. Fold in spinach; simmer for flavors to meld, adding more broth by 1/4-cupfuls if too thick, 8ñ10 minutes.
• Pour oil into a large heavy skillet to a depth of 1/8" (about 1/4 cup). Heat until oil begins to shimmer. Crack 2 eggs into hot oil, spacing apart. Using a large spoon, carefully baste whites (not yolks) with oil until whites are set and edges are crunchy, lacy, and golden brown, 2-3 minutes (do not turn). Season eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining 2 eggs.
• Spoon chickpea stew into bowls and top each with a fried egg.

SMOKED PAPRIKA POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking pan in the oven to heat up.
• Mix olive oil, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika, and hot sauce in a large bowl. Toss potato wedges in the oil until well coated.
• Pour wedges into the hot baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crisp and golden, about 40 minutes.

HOME-FRIED POTATOES WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook potatoes, covered, for 5 minutes. Season with salt. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the onions; stir. Reduce heat to medium, and cook, covered, for 5 minutes more. Uncover, and cook, tossing often, until potatoes and onions begin to brown, about 8 minutes.
• Sprinkle with pimenton, and cook until potatoes and onions are golden brown and tender, about 8 minutes more. Toss with parsley, and season with salt.

SAUTéED GREENS WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA FOR TWO

Steps:

• Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and let it heat up for about 20 seconds. It will thin out to coat the pan. Stir in shallot slices and garlic, and cook until pale golden at the edges and softened, about 2 minutes. Add a big pinch of salt and the paprika. Give everything a stir.
• Add the greens to the pan, using tongs to toss everything well. Add broth, and let greens simmer, until very soft, about 3 minutes for tender greens, and up to 15 minutes for tougher, mature greens. If the greens still seem tough but the pan is dry, splash in a little water and let cook for another few minutes.
• Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed. Squeeze on a little lemon juice, if you like, then serve hot or warm.
