Ingredients and Directions
Directions
In a large container, whisk together the oil, shallot, garlic, vinegar, thyme, rosemary and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
Wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Place them in a hotel pan and pour the marinade over them. Let stand for 1 hour, then drain the mushrooms.
For each serving, to order: Prepare 2 eggs over easy or as desired. Grill 1 mushroom over high heat on both sides until just tender, about 10 minutes. Layer the mushroom on a toasted English muffin and top with the eggs and a slice of Swiss cheese. Garnish with seasonal condiments.
Note: Picture substituted whole wheat bread slices for English muffins.

To ensure food safety, eggs should be cooked until both the yolk and the white are firm. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially for those with certain medical conditions. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served, use either pasteurized shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, or use pasteurized egg products.
