Running chef-client with the --daemonize option means it is not
attached to your TTY. ssh hangs because binding an elastic IP actually
changes the public IP of the instance you're binding it to, rather
than adding the elastic IP in addition to the already allocated public
IP. By running chef-client daemonized (or, as suggested earlier, in
screen/tmux), you're detaching chef-client from the TTY of your ssh
connection so that the run won't be interrupted.
