Poached Eggs with Roasted Asparagus, Prosciutto, and Chive OilBrian Leatart

The chive oil would also be delicious drizzled over salmon or chicken. For very hungry guests, poach 12 eggs and serve each person two instead of one. WHAT TO DRINK: Prosecco, an Italian sparkler, is festive, delicious, and a good value.
