Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

24 medium- thick asparagus spears
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Salt
8 large farm-fresh eggs
Splash of white wine vinegar
4 English muffins, split and toasted
4 1/2 ounces Brie cheese, cut into thin strips
Hollandaise Sauce
Freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Cut off and discard the woody ends from the asparagus and boil the spears for 5 minutes, or until fork- tender but still firm. Drain, transfer to a dish, and sprinkle the lemon juice on top.
  • Heat a wide 3-quart saucepan of water over medium heat and add a pinch of salt. Poach the eggs.
  • Place the English muffins on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Top each muffins half with 3 asparagus spears and 2 slices of Brie. Bake for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  • Top each muffins half with a poached egg and 1 tablespoon of the Hollandaise sauce and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
