Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin
  • 1 medium onion
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup chicken broth, low sodium
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 4 whole wheat English muffins
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 0.5 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 0.5 tsp sriracha sauce
  • 2 tbsp fresh chives

Directions

Step 1

To prepare the pulled pork, slice the onion and mince the garlic. Place them at the bottom of a slow cooker.

Step 2

Add the pork tenderloin on top of the onion and garlic.

Step 3

Pour chicken broth and balsamic vinegar over the pork. Sprinkle paprika, black pepper, and salt.

Step 4

Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours until the pork is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.

Step 5

Once cooked, remove the pork and shred using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker to absorb the juices.

Step 6

Prepare the hollandaise sauce by combining Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and sriracha in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly until the mixture is smooth and warmed through. Do not let it boil. Adjust seasoning to taste, then remove from heat.

Step 7

For poaching the eggs, fill a large saucepan with water and add white vinegar. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 8

Crack each egg into a small bowl or cup. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water and slowly pour eggs into the center. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, then remove with a slotted spoon.

Step 9

Toast the English muffins on a baking sheet under a broiler or in a toaster until lightly browned.

Step 10

To assemble, place a portion of pulled pork on each half of the English muffin, followed by a poached egg.

Step 11

Drizzle the hollandaise sauce over the eggs and garnish with chopped fresh chives.

Step 12

Serve immediately.
