Ingredients
- 4 large eggs worth egg whites
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Separate the egg whites from the yolks of 4 large eggs, discarding the yolks or saving them for another use.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites lightly with a fork to break them up. Add salt and black pepper, and mix well.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Swirl the oil around to coat the pan evenly.
Step 4
Pour the egg whites into the skillet, spreading them out evenly over the surface.
Step 5
Cook the egg whites undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is set and starts to turn a light golden color.
Step 6
Using a spatula, gently lift one edge of the egg whites to check if they are cooked through. They should be firm yet tender on top.
Step 7
Once cooked, slide the egg whites onto a plate. Garnish with chopped fresh chives if desired, and serve immediately.
