Cream Cheese and Chive Scramble with Prosciutto Recipe

1. 1

   Combine the eggs, pepper, 3 tablespoons of the chives, and milk or water in a large mixing bowl and whisk until the eggs are broken up and well blended.

2. 2

   Melt the butter in a large nonstick frying pan over low heat until foaming.

3. 3

   Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit undisturbed until the eggs just start to set around the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes.

4. 4

   Using a rubber spatula, push the eggs from the edges into the center.

5. 5

   Let sit again for about 30 seconds, then repeat pushing the eggs from the edges into the center every 30 seconds until just set, for a total cooking time of about 4 to 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Add the salt, distribute the cream cheese over the eggs, and stir to incorporate.

7. 7

   Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the eggs have reached your desired doneness.

8. 8

   Remove from the heat.

9. 9

   (The eggs will continue to cook in the pan.)

10. 10

    For each serving, place 2 slices of the prosciutto on a plate, just overlapping each other lengthwise.

11. 11

    Place a quarter of the eggs crosswise toward one end of the prosciutto pieces.

12. 12

    Wrap the loose end of the proscuitto over top of the eggs (so that it resembles a burrito) and top with a sprinkling of the remaining tablespoon of chives.

13. 13

    Serve immediately.
