Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 1 slice chopped bacon (for the essence of bacon)
  • 4 TBSP butter
  • ½ onion minced
  • A few jalapeño coins, minced
  • ¼ cup shredded chicken or shredded pork
  • 1 TBSP flour
  • ¼ cup cream
  • ½ cup of milk (maybe more if the sauce is too thick)
  • ½ cup shredded cheese of your choice (I used parmesan and swiss)
  • ¼ tsp turmeric
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 pinch nutmeg
  • 1 squeeze of lemon slice
  • Handful of chopped arugula and spinach
  • 4 eggs (preferably pastured eggs)
  • Red pepper flakes
Instructions
  1. On just below medium heat, sauté the chopped bacon, onion, and jalapeño with 3 TBSP butter.
  2. When they onions are soft, scoot everything to the edge of the pan and clear a space in the middle.
  3. Add the flour, 1 TBSP butter, and cream and whisk well.
  4. Gradually add the milk, a little at a time and continue whisking to thicken.
  5. When the sauce is your preferred texture, add in the cheese, all the spices, and the lemon juice, and whisk to combine.
  6. Add in the chopped greens, and stir everything with a spoon, folding it all together gently and evenly.
  7. Using a gravy spoon or large spoon, create an indention in the top of the sauce. Rest the spoon in the sauce, and crack an egg into it. Then, slowly remove the spoon, leaving the egg nestled in the sauce.
  8. Do this with all four eggs and let them cook uncovered until the whites are done.
  9. Garnish with red pepper flakes.
