Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces 1/4-inch-thick slices Black Forest ham
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
Additional Dijon mustard
4 English muffins, split, toasted
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil or chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Using 3 1/4-inch biscuit cutter or clean 6-ounce tuna can as template, cut ham slices into rounds.
  • Whisk mayonnaise, 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, orange juice, grated orange peel, and fresh lemon juice in small bowl to blend. (Ham and sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Fill large skillet with enough water to reach depth of 2 inches. Add white wine vinegar and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to water. Bring to simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low. Spread 3 tablespoons butter and some additional Dijon mustard over split sides of English muffins. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ham rounds and cook just until beginning to brown, about 1 minute per side. Place ham atop prepared English muffins. Arrange English muffins on baking sheet. Keep warm in oven while preparing eggs.
  • Crack eggs into skillet of simmering water. Cook until whites are set and yolks are set to desired doneness, about 3 minutes for medium-set yolks. Using slotted spoon, transfer eggs to plate.
  • Stir sauce in top of double boiler over simmering water until just heated through, about 2 minutes. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Place 1 egg atop ham on each prepared muffin half. Spoon warm sauce over eggs, sprinkle with basil or parsley, and serve immediately.
