Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1 pinch garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk and whisk together until well combined and the mixture is a uniform pale yellow.
Step 2
Chop the fresh chives finely and set aside.
Step 3
Place a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt slowly but not brown.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit, without stirring, for 20 seconds.
Step 5
Once the eggs start to set at the edges, use a spatula to gently pull them across the pan, forming large soft curds.
Step 6
Continue to cook and gently fold the eggs every few seconds. Be careful not to stir too frequently, as that will break down the curds.
Step 7
Cook until the eggs are thickened and no visible liquid egg remains, but the eggs are not dry.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat before the eggs are completely cooked; they will continue to cook in the residual heat.
Step 9
Season with a pinch of black pepper and garlic powder. Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
