My 5 year old likes to make faces out of the poached eggs and and a slice of bacon. My wife thinks that she forgot our annivesary when I make this dish.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup FRENCH'S® French Fried Onions
8 tbsp 4 Eggs
4 oz 2 English Muffin
1/2 cup 4 Bacon Slices
3 oz 4 Swiss Cheese Slices
1/2 cup Prepared Horseradish Mustard Vinegairette
4 tsp Chives or Gree Onion Chopped
8 cup water
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Directions:
1. Preheat oven broiler for 5 minutes. Boil 8 cups of water on stove top in a large sauce pan for poached eggs. Toast 4 English muffin halves.
2. Chop bacon slices and cook over medium heat until brown (about 8 minutes). Coarsely crush the French's French Fried Onions and add to the bacon. Cook 1 or 2 minutes more (Don't let the onions burn). Remove bacon and french fried onions to a paper towel to drain.
3. Reduce water to a slight simmer and poach 4 eggs for 3 minutes. Eggs can be made ahead of time and immediately submerged in ice water. Re-heat when needed by placing in simmering water for 1 minute.
4. Place the 4 toasted english Muffin halves on a baking sheet. Place a slice of swiss cheese on each half and then put about 1 tbls of the bacon/onion combination over the cheese. Place the baking sheet under he broiler from 30 secs to 1 minute, until the cheese is melted. A toaster oven works well for this.
5. Plate the english muffins and carefully put a poached egg on each half. Add a pinch of salt and pepper on each egg. Top with about 1 tbls of the Horseradish Mustard Vinegairette. Sprinkle with chopped chives.
6. Serve Immediately.
1. I like to substitute Cheddar or Fontina cheese to make it fancy.
2. Can also be served on toast if you run out of english muffins.
. Makes a tasty dinner too!!
