Deviled Eggs Benedict is a cross between two of my most beloved bites! These eggs are super easy to make and they disappear as fast as you can make them!

Ingredients

6 hard boiled eggs peeled
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 slices of Canadian bacon fine diced
1 tablespoons fresh chives thin sliced
1 English muffin toasted

Hollandaise Sauce:

2 tablespoons butter melted
1 teaspoon lemon juice plus more to taste
1 egg yolk
Pinch of salt
Pinch of paprika or cayenne pepper

Instructions

Eggs:

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Canadian bacon and cook until crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Slice each egg in half vertically, place the yolks in a medium mixing bowl, and the whites on a serving platter.
Use a fork to break up the egg yolks until they look like coarse sand. Add the mayonnaise and stir until completely combined and smooth.
Add the bacon to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
Transfer the egg mixture to a piping bag (or Ziploc bag) with the tip cut off. Pipe the egg yolk mixture into the hollow of each egg white until the center is slightly over-filled.
Cut the English muffin into small croutons. Place one croutons into each of the egg "yolks".

Sauce:

In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, egg yolk, salt, and paprika. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking to emulsify the butter. Taste and adjust the lemon and salt to you liking.
Microwave the sauce for 10 seconds. (The egg may seize up a little, it's okay.) Whisk until smooth.
Smooth a little of the sauce over each egg, and then sprinkle with some chives. Serve immediately.

Notes

Don't forget to stick a ltitle crouton in each yolk before serving.
