Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil plus a little more for cooking
- 4 ripe tomatoes cut into thick slices
- kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon thyme fresh, chopped, plus extra for garnish
- 8 lices Bacon thick-cut, smoked (preferably)
- 4 English muffins split crosswise
- No Fuss Hollandaise Sauce
- 8 large eggs
- 2 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Lightly oil a baking sheet and arrange the tomatoes on the baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the tomatoes with olive oil, and then liberally sprinkle with salt, pepper, and thyme.
- Place the bacon on another baking sheet lined with foil.
- Bake both the tomatoes and bacon for about 30 minutes. The tomatoes will be soft and lightly browned. The bacon should be browned and crispy (the time for the bacon will be less if not using thick-cut).
- Toast the cut muffins until lightly toasted. Set aside.
- Make the easy hollandaise sauce (see link to recipe in Ingredients)
- To poach the eggs, crack each egg into a small bowl (we use a vintage coffee cup, but any small vessel will do). Add a small dash of white vinegar to the egg.
- Use the handle of a large wooden spoon to vigorously swirl the boiling water in a circular motion.
- Working 2 to 3 eggs at a time, gently drop the eggs, one at a time, into the swirling vortex. No need to keep swirling the water at this point. Turn the heat off and allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for exactly 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a medium-sized bowl of water in the microwave until warm.
- Use a slotted spoon to very gently remove the poached eggs from the hot water and place them in the bowl of warm water. Continue this process until all eggs have been poached.
- Transfer the hollandaise sauce to a small pitcher or bowl (with a spoon). If too thick, thin it with hot water from poaching the eggs. Add enough until the sauce is easily pourable (but not too thin!).
- To serve: Place 2 toasted muffin halves, cut side up, on each plate. Top each half with 2 pieces of bacon (cut them in half, if desired) and 1 or 2 slices of roasted tomato. Top with poached eggs and then drizzle the hollandaise sauce over the top. Garnish with freshly ground pepper and more chopped thyme (if desired). Serve at once.

- The bacon can be made several hours in advance. The tomatoes can be roasted up to 1 hour in advance.
- The hollandaise can be made 30 minutes in advance. To thin the sauce, simply stir in a small spoonful of the hot water (from poaching the eggs) and stir. Continue this until the sauce is pourable (but not too thin!).
