Eggs with Asparagus and Ham
Tender scrambled eggs cooked with crisp-tender asparagus, diced ham, and fresh chives for a savory skillet breakfast.
Instructions
-
Step 1
Remove the woody ends from the asparagus and cut the tender stalks into bite-size pieces. Dice the ham and finely chop the chives.
-
Step 2
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk until evenly combined.
-
Step 3
Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and ham, then cook, stirring occasionally, until the asparagus is crisp-tender and the ham is hot.
-
Step 4
Reduce to low heat and pour in the egg mixture. Cook, gently drawing the spatula across the skillet to form soft curds, until the eggs are set and reach 71°C.

Step 5
Fold in the chives, divide among four plates, and serve immediately.
