CLASSIC EGGS BENEDICT

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup firm butter
3 English muffins
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon butter
6 thin slices Canadian-style bacon or fully cooked ham
6 eggs
4 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
Paprika, if desired

Steps:

  • In 1-quart saucepan, vigorously stir egg yolks and lemon juice with wire whisk. Add 1/4 cup of the butter. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly with wire whisk, until butter is melted.
  • Add remaining 1/4 cup butter. Continue stirring vigorously until butter is melted and sauce is thickened. (Be sure butter melts slowly so eggs have time to cook and thicken sauce without curdling.) If the sauce curdles (mixture begins to separate and melted butter starts to appear around the edge of the pan and on top of the sauce), add about 1 tablespoon boiling water and beat vigorously with wire whisk or egg beater until smooth. Keep warm.
  • Split English muffins; toast. Spread each muffin half with some of the 3 tablespoons butter; keep warm.
  • In 10-inch skillet, melt 1 teaspoon butter over medium heat. Cook bacon in butter until light brown on both sides; keep warm.
  • Wipe out skillet to clean; fill with 2 to 3 inches water. Add vinegar to water. Heat to boiling; reduce to simmering. Break cold eggs, one at a time, into custard cup or saucer. Holding dish close to water's surface, carefully slip eggs into water. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until whites and yolks are firm, not runny (water should be gently simmering and not boiling). Remove with slotted spoon.
  • Place 1 slice bacon on each muffin half. Top with egg. Spoon warm sauce over eggs. Sprinkle with paprika.

2 small tomatoes
1 small onion
1 medium jalapeno pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic; 1 chopped, 1 smashed
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

4 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

Steps:

Heat a medium skillet over low heat and add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Fry the salsa in the oil until it thickens slightly, 3 minutes. Remove to a bowl and set aside. Add the beans to the same pan along with the smashed garlic, 1/2 cup warm water and a pinch of salt; cook over low heat until warmed through, smashing slightly with a fork. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in another skillet. Fry the eggs sunny-side up; season with pepper. Place 1 warm tortilla on each plate. Divide the beans among them, then top with a fried egg, some salsa and cheese. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with the remaining salsa.

HUEVOS BENEDICT



Huevos Benedict image

I found this wonderful cookbook, Real New Mexico Chile. It has such unsual recipes in it and this was one I had to try. It is billed as the New Mexico version of Eggs Benedict. I made this using whole wheat pastry flour and blue cornmeal. However, it will work just as well with your choice of cornmeal and all-purpose flour. The eggs can be fried or use my Microwave Poached Eggs recipe #118761. Serve this with a fruit salad for a nice weekend brunch.

HUEVOS BENEDICTAZ



HUEVOS BENEDICTAZ image

Categories     Sandwich     Cheese     Egg     Breakfast     Poach     Quick & Easy     Sour Cream

Yield 2-3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 English Muffins
6 Poached Eggs
Chorizo Sausage (enough to make 6- 3in wide 1/4in thick patties)
1/3 cup Salsa
1/4 cup Sour Cream
1/2 cup Shredded Cheese (I prefer a Mexican blend like Monterey Jack/Cheddar/Asadero)
Dash of Mexican Chili Powder
1 TSP Unsalted Butter
1 TSP chopped Cilantro

Steps:

  • Form the Chorizo Sausage patties (or cut 1/4 inch thick slices) big enough to about cover an English Muffin. Pan fry or Oven Bake until nicely browned. I prefer a 425 deg oven for 12 minutes. Toast the English Muffins (they go well in the same oven as the sausage for about 8 minutes). Just before the Muffins are browned, place a small slice of butter and a sprinkle of the shredded cheese on each muffin to melt. Poach 6 eggs(I use a nonstick egg poacher in a saute pan of boiling water that almost covers the poacher- put a dash of apple cider vinegar in each poaching slot) Mix the Salsa, Sour Cream and Chili Powder in a small bowl. Remove the English Muffins when the cheese is melted and the edges are nicely toasted. Stack each muffin with the sausage, then a poached egg, cover with the salsa/sour cream sauce. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese and a bit of the cilantro on the top and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a nonstick skillet to prevent the eggs from sticking.
  • Cook the eggs over medium heat so that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the eggs, or they will become rubbery.
  • Use fresh, ripe avocado for the best flavor.
  • Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the avocado to taste.
  • Use a good quality English muffin for the best results.
  • Toast the English muffin until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • Add a generous amount of hollandaise sauce to the eggs Benedict.
  • Garnish the eggs Benedict with a sprinkle of paprika or chopped chives.
