Ingredients You’ll Need
1 slice sourdough bread, toasted
2 tbsp refried beans
2 tbsp guacamole (or mashed avocado with lime and salt)
1 poached egg
2 tbsp chorizo, cooked and crumbled
1 tsp chorizo oil (from the pan)
1 tsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Toast the Bread
Start by toasting your sourdough slice until golden and crisp on both sides in a skillet.
2. Add the Base Layers
Spread a generous layer of refried beans over the toast. Then spoon over the guacamole — this combo adds richness and balance to the spicy chorizo.
3. Cook the Chorizo
In a skillet, cook the chorizo on medium heat until crispy. Save a bit of that flavorful red oil — you’ll drizzle it later for added color and flavor.
4. Poach the Egg
Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a teaspoon of white vinegar and swirl the water before sliding in your egg. Poach for about 2 minutes for a runny yolk.
5. Assemble the Toast
Place the poached egg on top of the guacamole layer. Add the crispy chorizo pieces and drizzle with the chorizo oil.
6. Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle chopped cilantro, flaky salt, and pepper. Serve warm and enjoy the perfect blend of textures and flavors.
Pro Tips for Perfect Poached Eggs
Use pasture raised eggs for the best shape, texture and flavor.
A small splash of white vinegar in the water helps the whites set quickly.
Drain on a paper towel to avoid sogginess before adding to toast.
