Eggs Benedict

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce

    In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until blended. Gradually add melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Toast the English Muffins

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

  3. 3

    Cook the Canadian Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Canadian bacon until heated through and slightly crispy. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Poach the Eggs

    In a pot, bring water and white vinegar to a simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Eggs Benedict

    On each toasted English muffin half, layer a slice of Canadian bacon, followed by a poached egg. Drizzle with Hollandaise sauce and garnish with chopped chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
