How to Make Bacon Gruyere Cheese And Egg Sandwiches With Hollandaise
- **Make the Hollandaise Sauce:**
- In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of 2 inches of gently simmering water (double boiler), whisk together 3 large egg yolks, 1 tablespoon cold water, and a pinch of salt until slightly thickened and pale yellow.
- Slowly drizzle in 1 cup (2 sticks) melted unsalted butter in a thin, steady stream, whisking constantly until emulsified and thick. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Whisk in 1 tablespoon lemon juice, a dash of hot sauce (to taste), and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Keep warm over the simmering water (off the heat) until ready to serve, whisking occasionally.
- **Prepare the Sandwiches:**
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
- Add 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled, and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped Castelvetrano olives, 1-2 jalapeños, finely chopped (adjust to taste), and 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add 4 large eggs and scramble gently, scraping the sides with a spatula until just set, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese until melted.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toast 4 English muffins halves.
- Spoon the egg mixture onto the toasted English muffins.
- Top generously with warm hollandaise sauce.
- Garnish with freshly chopped chives and serve immediately.
