DIRECTIONS
- Prepare bruschetta: blend garlic and olive oil in blender or food processor until almost smooth. Brush oil on bread slices. Toast bread.
- Top each bread slice with 1 tablespoon finely chopped tomato and 1 tablespoon Asiago cheese. Keep warm.
- For each serving, melt 1 teaspoon butter in 8-inch nonstick pan. Add 2 eggs and cook, over medium heat, just until edges begin to brown and bubble.
- Flip eggs over and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes until whites are set (completely coagulated and firm) and the yolks begin to thicken (no longer runny, but not hard).
- Place bruschetta under broiler just to melt cheese.
- To serve, lay prosciutto slices on plates. Slide eggs onto prosciutto.
- Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon sage, 1 tablespoon Asiago cheese, and ground pepper to taste. Add 2 bruschetta slices. Garnish with sage sprig tied with lemon peel strips. Serve immediately.
