Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler). Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Toast the English Muffins

    Toast the English muffins until golden brown. Spread a little butter on each half and place them on serving plates.

  3. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of vinegar (optional). Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide them into the water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Benedict

    Top each toasted muffin half with a generous portion of lobster meat, followed by a poached egg. Drizzle with the prepared Hollandaise sauce and sprinkle with chopped chives, salt, and black pepper to taste.
