Ingredients

• 2 English muffins
• 4 slices Canadian bacon (or ham)
• 4 Large eggs
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 3 Large egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.125 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the Canadian bacon slices for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Keep warm.

Step 3

Bring a medium pot of water to a simmer and add the white vinegar.

Step 4

Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Carefully slide the eggs, one by one, into the simmering water. Poach gently for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, or longer if desired. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

Step 5

To make the hollandaise sauce, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until completely melted and hot.

Step 6

In a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using). Blend on high speed for 10 seconds.

Step 7

With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the hot melted butter in a steady stream. Blend until the sauce is thick and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

To assemble, place two toasted English muffin halves on each plate. Top each half with a slice of Canadian bacon, followed by a poached egg.

Step 9

Generously spoon the hollandaise sauce over the top of each egg. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this indulgent breakfast or brunch treat!
