Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 0.25 cup cilantro
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the eggs are well combined and fluffy.

Step 3

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and set aside.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, allowing them to melt and coat the pan evenly.

Step 5

Once the pan is hot, pour in the egg mixture. Allow it to set for about 10-15 seconds without stirring.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center. Continue to fold and stir the eggs as they cook, creating soft curds.

Step 7

When the eggs are about halfway done (still slightly wet), sprinkle in the chopped cilantro. Fold the cilantro into the eggs gently to ensure even distribution.

Step 8

Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set but still soft and creamy.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent overcooking.

Step 10

Serve the cilantro eggs hot with toast, avocado, or a side of your choice. Enjoy!
