BACON AND EGG SALAD
Steps:
- Cook the bacon pieces in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Add the shallots to the pan and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in 2 tablespoons vinegar, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 1 minute.
- In a large skillet, bring about 6 cups of water and 1 tablespoon of vinegar to gentle simmer. Crack the eggs, 1 at a time, and gently slip them it into the water. Cook until white is set but yolk is still runny, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
- Add the frisee and crisp bacon pieces to the warm pan dressing, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to coat. Divide the dressed frisee and bacon between 4 plates; top with a poached egg and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat garlic and 2 tablespoons oil in a small saute pan over medium heat until oil is bubbling. Discard garlic; drizzle oil over bread on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Whisk mustard, anchovy, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in red-wine vinegar. Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons oil.
- Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden and crisp, about 8 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
- Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in white vinegar. Break eggs into separate cups; slide eggs into water. Cook 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Toss chicory with vinaigrette. Divide among 4 plates. Top each with an egg; sprinkle with bacon and croutons.
Tips:
- For the perfect poached egg, bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer and add a splash of vinegar. Crack the egg into a ramekin or small bowl, then gently slide it into the simmering water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the white is set and the yolk is still runny.
- To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over the salad just before serving.
- If you don't have any bacon on hand, you can substitute cooked ham, chicken, or turkey.
- To save time, you can use pre-cooked bacon. Just heat it up in a skillet until it's crispy.
- This salad is also delicious with a sprinkle of crumbled blue cheese or goat cheese.
