Over medium heat sauté onions until just soft and set aside. In a medium bowl combine Salmon, Herbs, Onions, Dijon and Egg and mix well. Add Breadcrumb and mix until evenly combined. Form into cakes and Refrigerate 30 minutes-2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees while cakes are setting in the fridge and prepare a baking sheet with cooking spray and parchment. Bring a skillet up to medium-high heat and in batches brown both sides of each cake. After browning the cakes place on prepared baking sheet in the oven.
Put enough water into a large sauté pan to come up 2 inches in the pan. Add 2 Tablespoons white vinegar. Bring the liquid to a simmer. Begin to toast English Muffins and prepare Hollandaise (recipe below) before moving forward with the eggs.
Poach the eggs in a batch, no need to stir water when preparing more than a couple at a time. When fully cooked removed with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Layer each half of English muffin with 1 prepared salmon cake, a poached egg and 1/8 of the hollandaise. Garnish with fresh dill and chives.
