Ingredients
Method
Prepare Avocado
- Scoop out avocado and lightly mash. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Set aside.
Toast Bread & Cook Shrimp
- Heat a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil. Toast bread on both sides until golden and crisp. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add 2 tablespoon butter. Once melted, add shrimp, season with kosher salt, and cook 3–4 minutes, flipping occasionally until opaque. Remove shrimp and set aside.
Make Parsley Cream Sauce
- Wipe out the pan. Add 1 tablespoon fresh butter and melt over medium-low heat.
- Mix flour with 1 teaspoon water to form a slurry. Add slurry to melted butter and stir continuously.
- Pour in cream and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Add remaining water and stir to combine. Cook until sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.
Poach Eggs
- Fill a medium pot with water and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of vinegar and create a gentle vortex. Crack eggs into small bowls and gently slip into water. Poach for 3 minutes for runny yolks, or 4 minutes for jammy yolks. Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Assemble
- Spread mashed avocado evenly on toasted bread. Top with cooked shrimp. Spoon parsley cream sauce over shrimp.
- Place poached eggs on top and finish with flaky salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
