Ingredients

• 4 English muffins, split
• 8 large eggs
• 8 slices Canadian bacon
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and warm
• 1 tsp white vinegar
• ½ tsp kosher salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• 2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped

Steps

1. Make the hollandaise: whisk the yolks and lemon juice in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until thick and pale, about 2 minutes.
2. Drizzle in the warm melted butter very slowly, whisking constantly, until thick and glossy. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne. Keep warm.
3. Toast the English muffins until golden.
4. Brown the Canadian bacon in a dry skillet, about 1 minute per side.
5. Poach the eggs: simmer water with the vinegar, swirl, and slip in the eggs. Cook 3-4 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are runny.
6. Build each plate with a muffin half, bacon, a poached egg and a generous spoon of hollandaise. Scatter with chives.
