Instructions

  1. Step 1 Make sauce and prepare English muffins

    Prepare Hollandaise sauce according to package directions; cover and keep warm. Toast muffins; lightly butter and keep warm.

  2. Step 2 Make salmon cakes

    In a large bowl, whisk 1 egg lightly. Add sour cream, lemon pepper and scallions; mix well. Add drained salmon and breadcrumbs; mix well. Shape into 4 patties. Coat a large nonstick skillet with about 2 tablespoons of oil. Over medium-high heat, cook salmon patties, about 3 minutes per side, until crisp and deep golden brown on both sides. Remove from pan and keep warm.

  3. Step 3 Cook the eggs

    Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel. Add a light coating of oil to pan; heat over medium-high heat. Crack eggs gently into pan. Wait 1 minute, then add 1/2 cup of water. Cover and cook until eggs are opaque on top, similar to a poached egg. 

  4. Step 4 Assemble and serve

    For each serving, place a muffin half on a plate. Top with a warm salmon cake. Remove an egg from pan with a slotted spoon/spatula; place over salmon. Spoon on Hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
