Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 medium onion
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons water
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the water, salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Peel and chop the onion into small, even pieces.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and slightly golden.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the onions.

Step 6

Let the eggs sit undisturbed for a few moments until they begin to set around the edges.

Step 7

Gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly scrambled and creamy.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat immediately when the eggs are cooked but still slightly glossy.

Step 9

Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.
