Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
3 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons hot water
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sauce from a can chipotles in adobo
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
4 slices Canadian bacon
4 homemade or store-bought white corn arepas
2 tablespoons white vinegar
4 large eggs
Chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it is foamy but not browned, about 5 minutes. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and using the double boiler method, set a small bowl on top of the saucepan (the bottom of the bowl should not touch the water). To the bowl, add the egg yolks, 2 tablespoons of hot water, the lemon juice, salt, and adobo sauce, and whisk until foamy and just starting to thicken, about 5 minutes.
  • Slowly add the melted butter a little bit at a time and whisk the sauce until it is smooth. Turn off the heat and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the sauce stand over the warm water for up to 30 minutes before serving.
  • Note: If the sauce thickens too much or starts to separate, whisk hot water a teaspoon at a time until it is comes back together or thins out. Don't reheat the sauce over direct heat in a saucepan, it will separate.
  • Combine the oregano and the paprika in a small bowl and rub the herb mixture into the Canadian bacon. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the seasoned bacon slices Cook until their edges begin to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
  • Warm the arepas in a large skillet over medium-high heat 10 to 15 seconds on each side until they're heated through.
  • Fill a large skillet with 1 1/2 inches of water. Add the vinegar and bring the liquid to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. One at a time, crack the eggs into a ramekin or small bowl and gently slide them into the hot water. Poach the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off excess water.
  • To assemble, place a warm arepa on each serving plate. Top with a slice of the Canadian bacon and a poached egg. Spoon some of the chipotle hollandaise over the egg and sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

EGGS BENEDICTO (CHIPOTLE EGGS BENEDICT WITH BLENDER MOCK HOLLANDAISE)



Eggs Benedicto (Chipotle Eggs Benedict with Blender Mock Hollandaise) image

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 sticks unsalted butter
3 egg yolks*
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced and seeded canned chipotles in adobo sauce **
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon vinegar
8 very fresh large eggs
2 large croissants, sliced in 1/2
4 slices prosciutto

Steps:

  • For the hollandaise: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter until bubbling hot. In a blender, add the egg yolks, black pepper, to taste, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cover the blender and blend on high speed for several seconds. Either remove center cap of the blender lid or carefully remove the lid itself with blender still running. Pour the hot butter in a thin, steady stream into whirling egg mixture. Add the chipotle and pulse to combine. Taste sauce and adjust seasoning with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. (If your sauce gets too thick, you can thin it out with a couple tablespoons of boiling hot water.) For the eggs: In a heavy saucepan combine about 2 quarts of water and the vinegar and bring to a simmer. Break 1 egg into a small bowl or cup and slide the egg into a ladle. Lower the ladle into the water, and hold it there, for 1 minute before removing the ladle and leaving the egg to cook for 2 minutes more. Poach at a low simmer until the whites are firm and the yolks are still runny. Repeat with each remaining egg. Transfer the eggs, with a slotted spoon, to paper towels until ready to serve. To assemble: Arrange a croissant half, cut side up, on each of 4 plates. Put 1 piece of prosciutto on each half, then 2 poached eggs and top with hollandaise. Serve immediately.

Crepes Benedict with Hollandaise Sauce image

Slightly sweet crepes, with a lemony hollandaise sauce, ham, and eggs. Very simple and absolutely fantastic!

Provided by MTHIERFELDER

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 large eggs, divided
1 tablespoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 dash hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)
½ cup butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
½ cup warm water
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled to lukewarm
nonstick cooking spray
4 large eggs
¼ pound sliced deli ham

Steps:

  • Prepare hollandaise sauce: Separate eggs; reserve egg whites for the filling. Combine egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon, and hot pepper sauce in a blender. Cover and blend for 5 seconds. Set blender on high speed and pour in melted butter in a thin stream; it should thicken almost immediately. Place the blender container in a pan of hot tap water to keep sauce warm until needed.
  • Mix flour, milk, warm water, 3 eggs, and sugar for crepes together in a bowl. Whisk in melted butter until smooth.
  • Heat a 6- to 8-inch nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup crepe batter into the hot pan; tilt and swirl the pan to coat with batter. Cook until edges are browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Pick up the edge with a fork, grab with both hands, peel, and flip crepe over in one motion. You may use a spatula but be careful not to smash the crepe as it's delicate. Cook until the other side is browned, about 2 minutes more. Remove crepe and set aside in a warmer, oven, or double boiler to keep warm while you cook remaining crepes.
  • Prepare filling: Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; warm over medium-high heat. Whisk reserved egg whites with 4 eggs; pour into the skillet. Cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
  • Heat ham in the same skillet until warm.
  • Put some eggs and ham in each crepe. Roll them up and serve 2 per person with hollandaise drizzled on top.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ pound carnitas (cooked pulled pork)
4 English muffins, split
3 avocados, pitted and peeled
½ lime, juiced
salt to taste
½ cup salted butter
1 (.9 ounce) package hollandaise sauce mix (such as Knorr®)
1 cup milk
½ teaspoon chipotle powder
1 tablespoon white vinegar
8 large eggs

Steps:

  • Set 1 oven rack in the middle and another rack about 6 inches from the top. Preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Place carnitas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Place on the top rack under the preheated broiler and reheat until edges of carnitas are crispy, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toast English muffin halves. Remove from toaster and wrap in aluminum foil.
  • Remove carnitas from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Turn off the broiler and preheat oven to the lowest setting.
  • Return carnitas and English muffins to the oven to keep warm until needed.
  • Combine avocados, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl. Roughly smash to combine and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in hollandaise sauce mix until blended. Remove from heat. Gradually whisk in milk. Return to the stove, add chipotle powder, and whisk constantly over medium-high heat until boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking frequently, for 1 minute. Keep sauce warm while you prepare eggs.
  • Heat 2 to 3 inches water in a large, shallow saucepan until boiling. Add vinegar and lower heat to a light simmer. Crack 1 egg into a small ramekin. Lower the ramekin to the surface of the water and ease the egg out into the pan. Repeat with remaining eggs, poaching up to 4 at a time. Poach eggs until whites are completely set and yolks are slightly soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove eggs from the pan with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining eggs.
  • Place 2 English muffin halves on each plate. Top each half with avocado, carnitas, and 1 egg, then drizzle with hollandaise sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose High-Quality Ingredients: Use fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible, especially for the eggs, carnitas, and chipotle peppers. High-quality ingredients will result in a tastier dish.
  • Make the Carnitas Ahead of Time: Carnitas can be made up to 3 days in advance, making this recipe perfect for busy mornings. Simply reheat the carnitas in the oven or microwave before assembling the eggs Benedict.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro and chives add a burst of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Make the Chipotle Hollandaise Sauce Just Before Serving: This sauce is best when it's freshly made. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
  • Serve Immediately: Eggs Benedict is best enjoyed immediately after it's made. The hollandaise sauce will start to thicken and lose its creamy texture if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This carnitas eggs Benedict with chipotle hollandaise is a unique and delicious twist on a classic brunch dish. The combination of tender carnitas, creamy hollandaise sauce, and tangy chipotle peppers creates a flavor profile that is sure to impress your taste buds.
