This glazed asparagus dish boasts a highly creative recipe that combines classic ingredients with unexpected touches like Kool-Aid. The star of the dish is the Veal Oscar that is covered in a Béarnaise sauce and topped with a Pringle and Oreo crumble. However, the Veal Oscar is actually comprised of ordinary sandwich meat.
The dish itself is far from ordinary because it combines high-class dining ingredients as well as cheap grocery eats. The Fat Prince is joined by chef Micheal Voltaggio to create this dish using a Lunchable pack and king crab legs. Though inexpensive, this recipe results in a gourmet-inspired meal.
