Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 100 grams plant-based bacon
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk them together until thoroughly blended.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 3
Add the plant-based bacon slices to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 4
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt completely.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds or until they begin to set around the edges.
Step 6
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, scraping the bottom of the pan to form soft curds until they are almost fully cooked. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Be sure not to overcook them; they should be slightly runny as they will continue to cook a little with retained heat.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from the heat, fold in the chives, and let the eggs finish cooking with the residual heat of the pan.
Step 8
Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, alongside the crispy plant-based bacon slices. Enjoy your vegetarian breakfast!
