Eggs Benedict Ingredients

Method

Eggs Benedict Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potato Wedges

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and crispy.

  2. 2

    Cook the Canadian Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add the Canadian bacon slices and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until heated through and lightly browned.

  3. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    In a pot, bring water to a gentle simmer. Add vinegar and a pinch of salt. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the simmering water. Poach for 3-4 minutes for soft yolks, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Eggs Benedict

    Toast the English muffins. Place a slice of Canadian bacon on each half, top with a poached egg, and drizzle with warm Hollandaise sauce. Serve alongside crispy potato wedges.
