Chipotle Eggs Benedict

A spicy twist on the classic eggs benedict, featuring chipotle hollandaise sauce.

Ingredients

  • Salt and pepper - To taste
  • Hot sauce - 1 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Egg yolks - 4
  • Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce - 2, minced
  • White vinegar - 1 tablespoon

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the Canadian bacon and cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
  2. Fill a large pot with water, add the vinegar, and bring to a simmer. Crack the eggs into the water and poach for 3-4 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. In a blender, combine the chipotle peppers, egg yolks, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
