Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- To a small pot, add 3 cups (6 cups) warm water. Bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Using a spoon, lower egg into the boiling water. Cook for 7 min for a runny yolk or 9 min for a set yolk.** Drain and rinse egg under cold water for 30 sec, until cool enough to peel. Peel, then cut eggs into quarter wedges. Season with salt and pepper.
- Trim and discard bottom 1 inch from asparagus.
- Divide asparagus into 4 bundles (8 bundles for 4 servings). Carefully wrap 1 bacon strip around each bundle.
- To a parchment-lined baking sheet, transfer bacon-wrapped asparagus. Season with pepper.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-14 min, carefully flipping halfway through, until bacon is crisp.**
- Line another baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut ciabatta into 1/2-inch pieces. On the baking sheet, toss ciabatta pieces with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
- Bake on the bottom rack of oven for 5-7 min, until crispy and golden.
- Pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then salmon. Pan-fry for 3-5 min per side, until browned and cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) vinegar and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. (TIP: Add a pinch of sugar, if you like.)
- Add spinach, toss to combine.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Divide bacon-wrapped asparagus and salad between plates.
- Top salad with salmon, eggs and croutons, then sprinkle with chives.
If you've opted to add salmon, pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then salmon. Pan-fry for 3-5 min per side, until browned and cooked through.**
