Give your breakfast recipes a new way to eat eggs with this poached enchilados eggs recipe. In this version, the eggs are poached, cooked in the sauce itself, and, of course, they pair well with beans and rice. The poaching technique involves cooking food in hot liquid while stirring gently. The secret to keeping their shape is to crack them into a bowl first and not directly into the sauce.
