Eggs Benedict


Description

A classic brunch dish featuring poached eggs on toasted English muffins topped with Canadian bacon and rich hollandaise sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 English muffins, halved
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 slices of Canadian bacon
  • 1 cup of hollandaise sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped chives (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast the English muffin halves until golden brown.
  2. Cook the Canadian bacon in a skillet over medium heat until warmed and slightly crispy.
  3. Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into individual bowls.
  4. Gently slide the eggs into the simmering water and poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set.

  6. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with chopped chives.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Use fresh eggs for the best results; they hold their shape better when poached. If you want to keep the poached eggs warm, place them in a bowl of warm water until ready to serve.
