Method
Eggs
- 1
Prepare egg mixture
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk, kosher salt, black pepper, and chopped chives. Whisk vigorously until fully combined and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds.

Make soft scrambled eggs
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter. When the butter is melted and foaming but not browned, pour in the egg mixture. Let eggs sit undisturbed 10–15 seconds, then gently stir with a silicone spatula, pushing from the edges to the center. Continue folding every 10–15 seconds until large soft curds form but eggs remain slightly glossy and custardy, about 3–4 minutes total. Remove from heat while slightly underdone (they will finish cooking off the heat). Keep eggs warm covered loosely.
Ham
- 3
Warm and glaze ham
While eggs cook, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the ham slices in a single layer and sear 1–2 minutes per side until edges brown. Mix ground mustard and honey in a small bowl; brush mixture onto seared ham and cook another 30–60 seconds to tack the glaze. Remove ham to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
Chicken
- 4
Season chicken
Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl combine smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Rub the 2 tablespoons olive oil and minced garlic over both breasts, then evenly coat with the spice mix.

Cook chicken
Heat a skillet (can reuse the ham skillet after wiping) over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook 5–6 minutes without moving until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook 5–6 more minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.
Assembly & Garnish
- 6
Build trio plates
Divide baby spinach (if using) among 4 plates as a base (about 1/2 cup per plate). Fan 2 oz (about 50 g) of glazed ham slices on each plate, place a generous scoop of the soft scrambled eggs (about 2 eggs worth) beside the ham, and arrange 1/2 of a sliced chicken breast (about 4 oz) on each plate.
