Ingredients

  • 4 Large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Whole milk or heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl and add the milk or heavy cream. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Add the salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and stir gently to incorporate.

Step 3

Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly, but do not let it brown.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 10-15 seconds to start setting at the bottom.

Step 5

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the pan toward the center, creating soft folds. Continue this process, moving the eggs around the pan slowly.

Step 6

As the eggs start to set, reduce the heat to low and cook until just slightly underdone to your preference. Remove from heat; the residual heat will finish cooking the eggs.

Step 7

Transfer the scrambled eggs to a plate immediately to prevent overcooking and garnish with finely chopped chives or parsley, if desired.

Step 8

Serve hot with toast, avocado, or your favorite breakfast sides.
