Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Whisk the eggs thoroughly until the mixture is fully blended and there are no visible streaks of yolk or white.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, letting it sit undisturbed for about 10 seconds until it begins to set around the edges.
Step 5
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center while tilting the pan so that the uncooked egg flows to the empty areas of the skillet.
Step 6
Repeat this process until the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly glossy. Be careful not to overcook as they will continue to set slightly after removing from heat.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle chopped chives on top, if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting homemade dish!
