Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk or cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is uniform and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the unsalted butter and let it melt, swirling the pan to coat the surface evenly.
Step 3
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbly, reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg mixture.
Step 4
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the pan toward the center. Continue this motion in intervals to allow soft curds to form.
Step 5
When the eggs are about 75% cooked but still slightly runny, sprinkle in the grated cheddar cheese and fold it gently into the eggs.
Step 6
Once the eggs are fully cooked but still fluffy and moist, remove the pan from heat to prevent overcooking.
Step 7
Transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates. Garnish with chopped chives and fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and color.
Step 8
Serve immediately with toast or your favorite breakfast sides.
