POACHED EGGS IN CHILE BROTH

Steps:

• In blender place tomatoes and 1 cup chicken stock. Puree until smooth. Reserve. In large skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute with salt and pepper until golden brown, about 10 - 12 minutes. Add garlic and cook for a few minutes. Add red peppers, poblanos, tomato puree and remaining stock. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Poach eggs in broth and cook 4 -6 minutes, basting the tops occasionally with hot broth. With slotted spoon remove eggs and place in soup bowl. Ladle broth over eggs and garnish with grated cheese and sour cream.

PERFECT POACHED EGG

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with at least 3 inches of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce temperature to low--the water is ready when you see bubbles at the bottom of the pot, but there should be no bubbles breaking the surface of the water.
• Crack egg into a small-mesh sieve, allow it to drain, and then transfer the egg to a small bowl or ramekin in order to avoid a runny egg white. This step will give you a better-shaped poached egg with tighter whites.
• When water is at the right temperature, stir in about 1 tablespoon white vinegar which helps the egg white coagulate. Using a spoon, swirl the water in the center of the pot into a vortex or whirlpool, and carefully add egg to the center. Cook until egg white is set, but the yolk is still soft and runny, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcook.
• Transfer the egg to a paper towel to remove excess water using a slotted spoon. Serve immediately.

POACHED EGGS IN BLACK BEAN CHILI

Steps:

• Chop 3 onions and 1 red pepper coarsely. Add to blender with water, barbecue sauce and ancho peppers; blend until smooth. Set aside. Chop remaining onions and red pepper.
• Heat oil in large skillet. Add plantains, wieners, red peppers and half of the remaining onions; cook and stir 5 min. or until plantains are browned. Stir in beans and barbecue mixture; cook 3 min., stirring occasionally.
• Break 1 egg into small bowl; slip into skillet. Repeat with remaining eggs, leaving spaces between eggs; cover. Cook on medium-low heat 10 to 12 min. or until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not firm. Top with remaining onions.
