Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pancetta

    In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Whisk the Eggs

    While the pancetta is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Whisk the eggs until fully combined and slightly frothy.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the pancetta is crispy, reduce the heat to low. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the pancetta. Gently stir the mixture using a spatula, allowing the eggs to cook slowly.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Herbs

    When the eggs are nearly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the grated Pecorino Romano cheese and chopped chives over the eggs. Continue to gently stir until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the scramble to a serving plate. Serve immediately, garnished with additional chives if desired.
