To serve...

Instructions
 

For the savory French toast...

  • Whisk together the egg, cream, herbs, salt & pepper in a shallow dish. Lay baguette slices in egg mixture and gently press down. Let sit for 5 minutes, turn slices over and allow to rest another 5 minutes. Repeat until all egg has been absorbed into bread slices.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Pan grill bread slices on each side until golden brown and not soggy to the touch.

To serve...

  • Meanwhile cook lobster tail. We baked ours out of the shell at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes. Then cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Poach eggs in simmering water (with a teaspoon of white vinegar) for about 3-4 minutes.
  • To plate, place 2 savory French toast slices on each plate. Top with poached egg, lobster pieces, drizzle with melted butter, sprinkle with snipped chives, salt & pepper.
