Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Eggs Benedict
- Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce by whisking together three egg yolks, a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a heat-proof bowl. Place over simmering water and gradually whisk in half a cup of melted unsalted butter until thickened.
- Poach the Eggs by adding a splash of vinegar to simmering water. Crack each egg into small bowls and gently slide into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set and yolks remain runny.
- Toast the English Muffins by splitting them in half and toasting until golden brown and crispy.
- Assemble the Eggs Benedict by layering a slice of Canadian bacon on each toasted muffin, adding a poached egg on top, and drizzling with the warm hollandaise sauce.
- Serve Immediately with sides like fresh fruit or salad for a refreshing touch.
