Eggs Benedict
Eggs Benedict is a classic breakfast dish consisting of poached eggs, Canadian bacon, and hollandaise sauce served on toasted English muffins.
Ingredients
- Chives (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- White vinegar (1 tablespoon)
- Butter (2 tablespoons)
- Hollandaise sauce (1/2 cup)
- Canadian bacon (4 slices)
- Eggs (4)
- English muffins (2)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Slice the English muffins in half and toast them in the oven until golden brown.
- In a large pot, bring water to a simmer. Add white vinegar and a pinch of salt.
- Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin.
- Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water and carefully slide the eggs, one at a time, into the center of the whirlpool.
- Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- While the eggs are poaching, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the Canadian bacon slices until lightly browned.
- To assemble, place a toasted English muffin half on a plate, top with a slice of Canadian bacon, and carefully place a poached egg on top.
- Drizzle hollandaise sauce over the eggs and garnish with chopped chives.
- Repeat the process for the remaining English muffin halves and eggs.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
