Turkish Eggs
TURKISH EGGS
2 Servings | 10 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 3 tablespoons vinegar
- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
METHOD
- Combine the yogurt, garlic, salt, and pepper, and mix until combined.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Once it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and add the vinegar.
- Using a metallic spoon, give the water a stir in the center and, one at a time, break the eggs into them. Cook the eggs for 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set. Using a large metal spoon, remove the eggs from the boiling water.
- In a small saucepan, add the butter and once melted, add the sweet paprika and whisk until combined.
- Divide the yogurt into two bowls, top with two eggs each, and drizzle the sweet paprika butter sauce over the top.
NOTES
- TO STORE: I don’t recommend storing poached eggs as they’ll lose their runny yolks. Everything else can be stored in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to one week.
- TO REHEAT: The butter can be warmed on the stovetop or in the microwave. Eggs should be poached freshly to order.

Sear the chicken without stirring for 2–3 minutes, then cook through, about 6–8 minutes total. Temp should hit 165°F. Step 3 Brighten the rice Fluff the warm rice with a fork. Stir in lime juice, salt, and cilantro if you like. Keep it fresh, not heavy. Step 4 Smash the avocados In a bowl, mash the avocados with lime juice, salt, and pepper.

Spoon in a layer of rice, then avocado, then the honey lime chicken. Press gently, lift the mold. A little tower of joy.
