  3. On a plate, layer the smashed avocado as the base, followed by the cooked chorizo and sliced jalapeños for an added kick.

  2. Drizzle the luscious chipotle hollandaise sauce over the eggs, letting it cascade down the sides.
  3. Season the entire dish with salt and pepper, then garnish with fresh cilantro to brighten the flavors.

Notes

For perfectly poached eggs, consider swirling the water before adding the eggs. Fresh, quality ingredients will make all the difference in flavor. Choose ripe avocados and good quality chorizo for the best results. For an extra kick, add more jalapeños or even some diced tomatoes to the dish.
