INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the Salsa de Chipotle:
- In a blender, combine the chopped Roma tomatoes, chipotle peppers, garlic
clove, chicken bouillon powder, and water. - Blend until the ingredients are well
combined but still slightly chunky, depending on your preference. Set aside.
Prepare the Huevos Estrellados:
- Heat a generous amount of avocado oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Fry the tortillas until golden brown, about 1 to 1.5 minutes per side. If the
tortilla puffs up, gently press it down before flipping. Remove and drain on
a paper towel. - In the same pan, warm the turkey slices and place one on top of each tortilla.
- Crack an egg into the pan and fry until the whites set and the edges are
golden brown. - Carefully place each egg on top of the turkey.
- Spoon the prepared chipotle salsa over each egg and sprinkle with Mexican-blend cheese.
- Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Add
avocado slices to your plate as a garnish
