Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces English muffin
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Fresh tarragon
- 4 ounces Smoked salmon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Chives
- 1 piece Lemon wedge
Instructions
Slice the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown. Set aside.
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and whisk them together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the skillet evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and stir gently with a spatula, moving the eggs from the edges to the center as they begin to cook.
When the eggs are partially set but still creamy, stir in the fresh tarragon. Continue cooking until the eggs are fully cooked but soft, then remove from heat.
Place the toasted English muffin halves onto plates. Spoon a generous portion of the scrambled eggs onto each half.
Top the eggs with slices of smoked salmon, evenly distributing them across the muffins.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh chives and a squeeze of lemon juice for added brightness.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
