Poach the eggs for 3 to 4 minutes in simmering water to which the vinegar has been added.

For the sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper and beat thoroughly.

When the eggs are just set, remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

To serve, place a poached egg on a toasted English muffin half and pour sauce over top.


A simple yet somewhat elegant dish of poached eggs on toasted English muffins with a buttery lemon sauce with chives.

I made this and instead of English muffins, I put on top of corned beef hash and it was very good. Thanks for this recipe.

Since I love Eggs Benedict, I thought this was a great idea. It was great. I find it hard to believe the the above, Mrs. Breakfast found it "gross" Maybe here eggs were bad. Anyway we all loved it.

This was a gross meal. It made me barf after I consumed it. NEVER MAKE THIS MEAL FOR YOURSELF! But I suggest, if you have an enemy, make it for them. Thanks!

How wonderful - my mother always poached eggs like this and my wife still does - when the water is simmering, swirl the water round it keeps the eggs together.
