Health and fertility benefits of Herbed Spaetzle in Brown Butter

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Fresh spinach is an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin B6, all of which have significant roles in reducing inflammation in the body, all of which help in the case of infertility.

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
2 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
1 cup low-salt chicken broth
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
3 cups (packed) baby spinach leaves
2 cups thinly sliced radicchio
1 lemon, halved

Instructions

Combine flour and next 6 ingredients in large bowl. Whisk eggs and broth in small bowl to blend. Gradually stir egg mixture into dry ingredients (batter will be loose).
Meanwhile, bring large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Reduce heat to medium. Place rimmed baking sheet close by.
Working with 1/2 cup batter at a time and using flexible rubber spatula, press spaetzle batter through 1/4-inch-wide holes of spaetzle maker or colander. Boil until tender, about 3 minutes. Using skimmer, lift spaetzle from pot. Drain; place on baking sheet.
Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until butter browns, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Add spaetzle; sauté until beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Add spinach and radicchio; toss until wilted, about 3 minutes. Squeeze some lemon juice over spaetzle. Season with salt and pepper.
