Huevos Con Jamon (Scrambled Eggs & Ham)
Prep 5 min Cook 5 min Serves 2 Source

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon heavy cream or milk
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • 4 large slices of lean Deli ham (chopped into squares)

Steps

  1. 1

    Whisk together eggs, 1 Tbsp. heavy cream, kosher salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Over medium heat, melt butter until foamy, then add chopped ham. Cook until the edges start to crisp.

  3. 3

    Add the egg mixture and mix with the ham. Let the eggs cook at least 30 seconds so large curds have a chance to form before pulling towards the center.

  4. 4

    Gently pull the eggs from the edges toward the center with a spatula, folding slowly to create soft, fluffy curds. Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly glossy, remove from the heat.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately with refried beans, flour tortillas, salsa or hot sauce, and avocado slices.
