Avocado oil

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
Serve immediately and enjoy this authentic Mexican brunch!
