Preparation Steps

1. Cook the Lobster

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster tails and cook for about 8-10 minutes until the shells are bright red. Remove the lobster and let it cool. Once cooled, extract the meat from the tails and chop it into bite-sized pieces.

2. Make the Hollandaise Sauce

In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler). Slowly drizzle in melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Remove from heat and keep warm.

3. Poach the Eggs

Fill a pot with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel.

4. Toast the English Muffins

Split the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown.

5. Assemble the Dish

On each toasted English muffin half, place a portion of the chopped lobster, followed by a poached egg. Drizzle with hollandaise sauce and garnish with chopped chives. Serve immediately.
