Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 medium tomato
• 0.5 small red onion
• 2 tablespoons cilantro
• 0.5 jalapeño
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Chop the tomato and red onion into small dices and add to a small bowl.

Step 2

Finely chop the cilantro leaves and add to the bowl.

Step 3

Remove seeds from the jalapeño and finely chop it, then add it to the bowl.

Step 4

Add lime juice, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper to the salsa mixture, stirring well to combine. Set aside.

Step 5

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add 2 tablespoons of whole milk, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, then whisk until well combined.

Step 6

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted.

Step 7

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and let them sit without stirring for about 30 seconds.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, scraping from the edges to the center. Continue until the eggs are just set yet still slightly runny.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat; the residual heat will continue to cook the eggs.

Step 10

Serve the scrambled eggs immediately on plates and top with generous spoonfuls of the prepared salsa.
