Breakfast Bruschetta with Fontina-Scrambled Eggs and Salami Recipe
- 4 ounces thinly sliced salami
- 10 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons milk (not nonfat)
- 3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
- 8 ounces Italian or French bread, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup shredded fontina cheese (about 3 1/2 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons tapenade
- Heat the oven to broil and arrange a rack in the middle.
- Stack the salami slices and cut them into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
- Place in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the egg mixture and toast the bread.
- Place the eggs, milk, red pepper flakes, and measured salt and pepper in a large bowl and whisk until the eggs are broken up and the mixture is thoroughly combined; set aside.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet, brush a thin layer of the oil on each slice, and season with salt and pepper.
- Broil until browned and toasted, about 2 to 3 minutes; set aside.
- When the salami is ready, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a paper-towel-lined plate; set aside.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
- Let it sit undisturbed until the eggs just start to set around the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Using a rubber spatula, push the eggs from the edges into the center.
- Let sit again until the edges start to set, then spread back into an even layer.
- Repeat, pushing the eggs from the edges into the center every 30 seconds, until almost set, for a total cooking time of about 3 to 5 minutes.
- (The top of the eggs should still be slightly wet.)
- Remove the pan from the heat.
- Sprinkle in the cheese and gently fold until its melted.
- Divide the eggs over the toasts.
- Divide the tapenade evenly over the eggs.
- Sprinkle with the reserved salami.
- Serve immediately.
