Ingredients

  • 4 pieces large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk until yolks and whites are fully combined.

Step 2

Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and whisk again until smooth and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely and coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for about 10-15 seconds until the edges start to set.

Step 5

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, scraping from the edges of the skillet toward the center. Continue this motion every few seconds to create soft, fluffy curds.

Step 6

Once the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the eggs.

Step 7

Gently fold the eggs over the cheese, allowing it to melt and combine with the eggs. Remove from heat while the eggs remain soft and custard-like.

Step 8

Serve immediately, garnished with chopped chives if desired. Enjoy your Joshua's Cheesy Eggs!
