EATS: Loaded Grilled Potato
August 15, 2016
As I got hungry the other day, I searched through the kitchen for something to eat. I was in the mood for stir-fry, but I couldn't find any rice. I wasn't in the mood for just an egg either. As I looked around for something, I decided to do a little bit of experimental cooking. I never experiment when cooking, but I decided to give it a try. Through this, I created the Loaded Grilled Potato. I will tell you what I did...
Ingredients
- 1 Red-Skinned Potato
- 1 Egg
- 1 Whole Mushroom
- 1 Stock of Broccoli
- 1 Carrot
- 1 Clove of Garlic
Seasoning
- "Slap Ya Mama" Seasoning
- Salt
- Onion Powder
- Pepper
- Red pepper flakes
Directions
- Slice the potato into thin slices (long side so you get large slices) and pat down the liquid with a paper towel until dry. I ended up with 5 slices.
- Lightly season the potato with "Slap Ya Mama" (DON'T OVERDO THIS SEASONING or your food will end up VERY salty and you'll have to scrape it off later...like I did...).
- Place the slices on a greased George Foreman Grill (If you don't have one, you can cook it on the stove on LOW heat). Let it cook for a while until it seems somewhat dry and has grill marks. Make sure to flip it after about 3 minutes!
- Place the cooked slices on a paper towel with a plate under it.
- Crack the egg in a bowl and separate the yolk from the whites.
- Put the egg white in a separate bowl, add a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper, and mix with a fork.
- Pour the egg whites in a small pan on a low setting and divide the whites into thirds before the egg full cooks.
- Flip the eggs so they cook evenly. Once the egg full cooks, place on the potato slices.
- Repeat 6-8 with the egg yolk.
- Chop up the broccoli, mushrooms, garlic, and carrots (cut the carrots into thin slices).
- Heat a small pan to medium-low. Add about 1-1/2 tbsp. of oil to the pan and add the broccoli and carrots to the pan. After 1 minute, add the mushrooms, garlic, and about 2 pinches of salt and 1 pinch of onion powder.
- Once it looks well done, place them on top of the egg.
- Lastly, add red pepper flakes to the creation.
There you have it! It tastes so good and satisfies my hunger! I'm not sure if I've had a meal with both an egg and a potato, but they really complement each other. Eggs have protein so it's always great to take a break from meat. If you try this recipe, please share! You of course can experiment and add/subtract seasoning, vegetables, or whatever your heart desires.
