Ingredients

1 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
4 egg whites
4 slices turkey bacon, cut into 1/2-inch strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
4 cups frisée, picked and rinsed

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Add white vinegar and salt to a large pot of water; bring to a simmer. Slide an egg white into pot slowly; let cook 30 seconds before adding another egg white.

    In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together oils, red wine vinegar and mustard; season with salt and black pepper. Nuke vinaigrette 45 seconds. Toss frisée and turkey bacon with warm vinaigrette.

    Step 5

    Divide frisée mixture between 2 bowls and create a nest in each; add 2 poached egg whites to each nest. Season with salt and black pepper and serve immediately.
