This elegant Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict with Dill Hollandaise makes a perfect brunch in just 30 minutes. The rich, lemony sauce compliments the salty salmon and perfectly poached eggs. Serve this cafe-style dish to impress your guests on weekends or holidays.
Prepare the Hollandaise sauce by whisking egg yolks and lemon juice in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water.
Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the sauce from heat, stir in the fresh dill, season with salt and pepper, and cover to keep warm.
Fill a large saucepan with water, add vinegar, and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Crack each egg into a small ramekin first, then slide them gently into the simmering water one by one.
Poach the eggs for 3-4 minutes until the whites are fully set but the yolks remain runny, then remove carefully with a slotted spoon.
While the eggs cook, toast the English muffin halves in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown and crisp.
To assemble, place two toasted muffin halves on each plate and top each with a generous slice of smoked salmon.
Place a poached egg carefully on top of the salmon.
Spoon the warm dill Hollandaise sauce generously over the eggs and garnish with extra dill or chives before serving immediately.
