1/3 cup butter
-
2 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
-
1 Tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Poach the eggs for 3 to 4 minutes in simmering water to which the vinegar has been added.
For the sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper and beat thoroughly.
When the eggs are just set, remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
To serve, place a poached egg on a toasted English muffin half and pour sauce over top.
A simple yet somewhat elegant dish of poached eggs on toasted English muffins with a buttery lemon sauce with chives.
