Start by cutting the cooked ham into small bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Add the ham pieces to the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until warmed through and lightly browned.
Pour the egg mixture over the ham in the skillet, gently stirring with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Continue to cook the eggs over medium heat, gently stirring and folding occasionally, for about 4-5 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency.
Once done, remove the skillet from heat and divide the ham and eggs evenly onto two plates.
Garnish with freshly chopped chives and serve immediately.
