Recipe: Vivio's Eggs Benedict (using jalapeno peppers)

Breakfast and Brunch
VIVIO'S EGGS BENEDICT

"Jalapeno peppers add a kick to Vivio's version of eggs Benedict. At the Detroit restaurant, home fried potatoes and fruit accompany the dish."

1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Dash pepper
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack or American cheese (3 ounces)*
1 to 2 tablespoons seeded and sliced fresh jalapeno peppers**
8 eggs
8 slices Canadian-style bacon, cut about 1/4 inch thick (about
8 ounces)
FOR SERVING:
4 English muffins or bagels, split and toasted
1/2 cup dairy sour cream
Sliced pitted ripe olives and chili peppers (for garnishing)

TO PREPARE THE CHEESE SAUCE:
In a small saucepan, melt butter or margarine. Stir in flour and pepper. Add milk all at once. Cook and stir over medium heat till thickened and bubbly; cook and stir for 1 minute more. Reduce heat to very low. Stir in cheese and jalapeno peppers till cheese melts. Cover; keep warm.

TO POACH EGGS:
Add water to half-fill a 12-inch skillet. Bring water to boiling. Reduce heat to simmering. Break 1 egg into a small cup. Carefully slide egg into simmering water, holding the lip of the cup as close to the water as possible. Repeat with remaining eggs, allowing each egg an equal amount of space. Simmer eggs, uncovered, for 4 to 6 minutes or till yolks are just set.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat Canadian-style bacon slices till warm.

TO ASSEMBLE:
Place 2 toasted muffin or bagel halves, cut side up, on each plate. Top each half with a slice of Canadian-style bacon. With a slotted spoon, place a poached egg on top of each. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon 1/4 cup cheese sauce over each 2-egg serving. Dollop each serving with 2 tablespoons of the sour cream. Garnish with olives and peppers.

*Sauce may appear slightly curdled if you use natural Monterey Jack cheese. For a smoother looking sauce, choose process American cheese.

**Wear plastic or rubber gloves when handling hot peppers. If your bare hands touch the chili peppers, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching your eyes or face.
