Best 7 Always Successful Fast Eggs Benedict Recipes

QUICK AND EASY EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium-high heat, fry the Canadian bacon on each side until evenly browned.
• Fill a large saucepan with about 3 inches water, and bring to a simmer. Pour in the vinegar. Carefully break the 4 eggs into the water, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, until whites are set but yolks are still soft. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter until bubbly in a small pan or in the microwave. Remove from heat before butter browns.
• In a blender or large food processor, blend the egg yolks, heavy cream, cayenne pepper, and salt until smooth. Add half of the hot butter in a thin steady stream, slow enough so that it blends in at least as fast as you are pouring it in. Blend in the lemon juice using the same method, then the remaining butter.
• Place open English muffins onto serving plates. Top with 1 slice Canadian bacon and 1 poached egg. Drizzle with the cream sauce, and serve at once.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Fill a large saucepan with 2 quarts water. Add the vinegar and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, toast the English muffins until golden brown. Spread with butter and place on one side of a baking sheet. Keep warm in the oven.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Canadian bacon and cook until heated through, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer the bacon to the other side of the baking sheet to keep warm.
• Melt the remaining butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the yolks, lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the cayenne to a blender. Blend for 1 minute. With the blender running, pour the melted butter very slowly through the open hole of the blender lid until smooth, thick and emulsified. Transfer the sauce back to the saucepan and place in the oven to keep warm.
• Crack the whole eggs into small cups or glasses. If your simmering water has reduced too much, add a bit more water and bring back to a steady simmer. When the water is at a steady simmer, slip the eggs into the water in one quick motion, arranging them clockwise in the pan so you know which will be ready first.. Poach the eggs until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
• Top each muffin half with a slice of Canadian bacon and a poached egg. Pour hollandaise sauce over each muffin. (If the sauce has thickened too much, whisk it with a tablespoon of water.) Sprinkle each serving with a little cayenne and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Spread 1 tablespoon butter over bread slices. Place buttered side-down in a grill pan; cook until crispy, about 3 minutes. Place 2 bread slices grilled side-down on a baking sheet.
• Combine the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, parsley, Parmesan cheese, mustard, garlic, and pepper in a bowl. Spread over bread on the baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Place eggs in the same skillet; cook over medium-high heat until whites are set on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip over to cook the other side until whites are completely set, about 1 minute more. Layer bacon and eggs over the broiled bread and top with the 2 grilled slices.

ALWAYS SUCCESSFUL FAST EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• Put 8 small plates in oven set on lowest temperature to warm.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in contents of hollandaise package. Only use Knorr brand, and do not use the package instructions. Slowly whisk in milk a little at a time so as to avoid lumps (whisk out any lumps you get right away). Turn heat down to medium low and watch carefully, whisking occaisonally as it thickens. When it's the right consistancy (it will thicken in about 3 minutes), gently stir in 1 tsp lemon juice. Add Canadian bacon slices. Cover and set on low until needed.
• Split English muffins and toast lightly. Set one on each plate in oven to keep warm.
• Gently fry eggs over medium heat. I usually crack 4 eggs into a small bowl and add all at once to a small skillet. Once the whites start to set up, I add about 2 TBS water, lightly salt, and cover with glass lid so you can watch the eggs. They will steam or boil gently.
• While eggs are cooking, place one piece of Canadian bacon onto each piece of English Muffin on plates in oven. (Wood tongs are great for this).
• Place one egg on each prepared plate. If cooking 4 eggs at a time, leave the first 4 plated in the oven.
• Spoon hollandaise over each plate and sprinkle lightly with paprika and serve.

• Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add Canadian bacon, and cook until well browned on both sides.
• Fill a large saucepan with about 4 inches of water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat under saucepan to medium, so water is just barely simmering. Break 1 egg at a time into a small heatproof bowl. Gently tip bowl into water; carefully slide in the egg. Repeat with remaining eggs.
• Divide the bacon among the English muffin halves. When the eggs begin to become opaque, remove them from the saucepan with a slotted spoon in the order in which they were added. Set spoon and egg briefly on a slice of bread to drain. Gently place egg on a bacon-topped muffin, and spoon reserved warm hollandaise sauce over the top. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chives.
