Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, letting it melt and coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 4
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the eggs to season.
Step 5
Transfer the cooked eggs to the plate with the ham, using a spatula to carefully lift them.
