1/4 cup butter, softened 1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley 1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon or 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel 1/8 teaspoon salt, divided 16 fresh asparagus spears, trimmed 1 tablespoon white vinegar 4 eggs 2 English muffins, split and toasted Dash pepper

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine butter, parsley, tarragon, lemon juice and peel and a dash of salt; chill until serving. In a large saucepan, place steamer basket over 1 in. of water. Place asparagus in basket. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; steam, covered, 3-4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Meanwhile, place 2-3 in. of water in a large skillet with high sides; add vinegar. Bring to a boil; adjust heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Break cold eggs, one at a time, into a custard cup or saucer; holding cup close to surface of water, slip eggs into water. Cook, uncovered, 3-5 minutes or until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard. Using a slotted spoon, lift eggs out of water. Spread 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon butter over each English muffin half; top with 4 asparagus spears, 1 egg and another 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon butter. Sprinkle with pepper and remaining salt.
