The Ham and Egg Scramble is a quick and delicious breakfast option that combines savory ham, fluffy eggs, and a hint of spice to kickstart your day. It's an easy recipe that requires minimal ingredients and cooking time, making it perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Dice the ham into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until well combined.
- Lightly spray a medium-sized non-stick skillet with cooking spray oil.
- Place the skillet on the stove over medium heat.
- Once the skillet is heated, add the diced ham.
- Sauté the ham for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to brown and becomes slightly crispy around the edges.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Pour the whisked eggs over the ham in the skillet.
- Allow the eggs to sit for a few seconds until they start to set around the edges.
- Gently stir the eggs and ham, guiding from the edges to the center with a spatula or a wooden spoon.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness. Remember, residual heat will continue to cook the eggs slightly after you remove them from the pan, so it's a good idea to take them off a bit sooner if you prefer softer eggs.
- Sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes over the scrambled ham and eggs for a touch of heat.
- Stir gently to distribute the red pepper flakes evenly.
- Serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- Preheat the pan with the cooking spray oil to ensure the eggs don't stick.
- Cut the ham into small pieces to allow for even distribution throughout the eggs.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together before pouring into the pan for a more even scramble.
- Add the red pepper spice gradually to adjust the level of heat to your preference.
- Consider adding other ingredients like cheese, onions, or bell peppers for added flavor and texture.
- Cook the scrambled eggs over medium-low heat and stir gently to keep the eggs soft and fluffy.
This Ham and Egg Scramble is not only satisfying but also quick and easy to prepare. With just a few simple ingredients and steps, you can have a nutritious breakfast ready in minutes. Enjoy the delicious flavors and start your day on the right note!
