How to Make Poached Eggs For A Hangover

  1. In a medium skillet, combine 1 tablespoon ketchup, 2 tablespoons pickle juice, 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, and 1 tablespoon butter. Cook over low-medium heat, stirring frequently, until butter is melted and the mixture is bubbly and well combined (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Gently crack 2 large eggs directly into the simmering sauce.
  3. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking. For runny yolks, cook for 8 minutes; for firmer yolks, cook for 10 minutes.
  4. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, sprinkle 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyere, or your favorite) over the eggs and let it melt.
  5. While the eggs cook, toast 2 slices of bread to your desired level of doneness.
  6. Carefully remove the poached eggs from the skillet using a spatula and place them on top of the toasted bread.
  7. Spoon the flavorful sauce generously over the eggs and toast.
  8. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh black pepper.
