Ingredients

• 18 large eggs
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 large, finely diced onion
• 2 medium, diced bell peppers (red and yellow)
• 1 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1 cup, shredded Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup, chopped fresh basil leaves
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 2 teaspoons (or to taste) salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 cup, chopped (optional garnish) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, crack 18 eggs and add the whole milk. Whisk well until fully combined and fluffy. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet or a wok over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 3

Add the finely diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the diced bell peppers and cook for another 3 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes begin to break down slightly.

Step 6

Sprinkle the vegetables with dried oregano, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1 minute to begin setting.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, folding them over the sautéed vegetables until the eggs are scrambled and cooked to your desired consistency (about 4-5 minutes).

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and immediately stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil leaves.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Transfer the scrambled eggs to a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley, if using. Serve warm with crusty bread or as part of a breakfast spread.
