This smoked salmon and creamy scrambled eggs with chives recipe is a delightful, gourmet breakfast or brunch option that's sure to impress. The rich, smoky flavor of the salmon pairs perfectly with the creamy texture of the scrambled eggs, and the fresh chives add a burst of color and a subtle onion note.
Instructions:
- Finely chop the smoked salmon into small pieces.
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl.
- Finely chop the chives and set them aside.
- Add the heavy whipping cream to the bowl with the eggs.
- Season with a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper.
- Use a whisk or fork to gently beat the eggs and cream together until well combined.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add the butter and let it melt, ensuring it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
- Use a spatula to continuously stir the eggs as they cook. Keep the heat low to ensure the eggs cook slowly and become creamy.
- Just as the eggs begin to set but are still slightly runny, add the chopped smoked salmon to the skillet.
- Continue to gently scramble until the eggs are fully cooked but still creamy. Be careful not to overcook them.
- Once the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Gently fold in the chopped chives.
- Spoon the scrambled eggs onto plates.
- Garnish with additional chopped chives if desired.
- Serve immediately while the scrambled eggs are still warm and creamy.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality smoked salmon for the best flavor.
- Keep the heat on medium-low when cooking the scrambled eggs to avoid overcooking them.
- Continuously stir the eggs slowly to ensure they stay creamy and don't form large curds.
- Add the smoked salmon just before the eggs are fully cooked to retain its delicate texture.
- Garnish with extra chives for a pop of color and added freshness.
