Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Allow the eggs and puff pastry to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out the thawed puff pastry into a rectangle, approximately 12x8 inches, and score a 1-inch border around the edges.
  4. Whisk together the beaten egg and a tablespoon of water to create an egg wash, and brush it over the pastry border.
  5. Pre-bake the pastry for 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  6. Spread the Boursin cheese evenly over the center, then carefully crack the six eggs on top.
  7. Return the tart to the oven and bake again for 12-14 minutes, or until the egg whites are set.
  8. Sprinkle the tart with green onions and torn prosciutto slices after baking.
  9. Toss arugula with olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt, then top the baked tart.
  10. Garnish with shaved Parmigiano cheese, slice and serve warm.
