Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the milk. Whisk together until well combined and the mixture is smooth.
Step 2
Add the salt and black pepper to the egg mixture, stirring gently to distribute evenly.
Step 3
Finely chop the fresh chives and set them aside. Grate the cheddar cheese if it’s not already shredded.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, swirling it around the pan to coat the surface.
Step 5
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Step 6
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then use a spatula to gently push the eggs from the edges of the pan toward the center. Continue folding the eggs to create curds, being mindful not to over-stir.
Step 7
When the eggs are about 80% cooked and slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Step 8
Continue gently folding the eggs until the cheese is melted and the eggs are just set but still creamy. Remove the skillet from heat immediately to avoid overcooking.
Step 9
Garnish the scrambled eggs with the chopped fresh chives and serve warm.
