Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the coconut milk. Whisk together until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is a uniform consistency.
Finely chop the chives and set aside a small portion to use as a garnish later.
Cut the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is heated, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit undisturbed for a moment until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently pull the set edges of the eggs towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
Continue to gently fold and stir the eggs until almost fully cooked but still slightly runny.
Add the smoked salmon pieces and chopped chives to the skillet. Season with black pepper and sea salt to taste.
Continue cooking for another minute, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are creamy and the salmon is warmed through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the residual heat to finish cooking the eggs.
Serve immediately, garnished with the remaining chopped chives.
