Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk 4 large eggs with 2 tablespoons heavy cream until fully combined and slightly frothy; season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Step 2: Heat 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until melted and shimmering.
- Step 3: Pour in the egg mixture and gently stir with a rubber spatula, allowing the eggs to set and form soft curds without scrambling too much, for 4-5 minutes until softly set but still moist.
- Step 4: Gently fold in 3 ounces smoked salmon (cut into small 1/2-inch pieces) and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the salmon is warmed through and the edges are slightly crisp.
- Step 5: Divide the scrambled eggs onto a plate, top with 1/2 medium sliced avocado, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon fresh chives.
