Recipe Introduction


Perfect for a special occasion or romantic breakfast for two.


List of Ingredients




2 English Muffins, split
1 king crab leg, about 3/4 #, defrosted, shelled, and gently warmed in microwave
4 large Eggs, very fresh
Hollandaise Sauce
Old Bay Seasoning


Recipe



Begin by heating a pan with about 2" of water. When the water comes to a boil, lower it to a simmer. Crack an egg into a bowl and then using the handle of a wooden spoon, create a whirlpool and gently slide the egg in. You want the white of the egg to wrap around the yolk. Continue with the other eggs. Poach in gently simmering water for 3-5 minutes. You want the whites set and the yolks runny.
Meanwhile, toast the English muffins. When the eggs are done, take them out with a slotted spoon and put them on a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper if you desire.
Serving suggestion: Put some crab meat on top of each half of the English muffins. Top with a poached egg, 1-2 T hollandaise sauce, and a sprinkle of old bay and serve.
Serves 2.
