Ingredients

  • 4 pieces large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 medium, thinly sliced yellow onion
  • 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 8 pieces romaine or butter lettuce leaves
  • 1 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the ingredients: Thinly slice the yellow onion and separate the lettuce leaves. Set both aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden brown.

Step 4

Remove the onions from the skillet and set them aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the butter. Once melted, pour in the egg mixture.

Step 6

Allow the eggs to cook gently, stirring slowly with a spatula, until they are just set but still creamy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the scrambled eggs from heat and let cool slightly for easy handling.

Step 8

To assemble the wraps, place a spoonful of scrambled eggs into the center of each lettuce leaf. Top with some caramelized onions.

Step 9

If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and presentation.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, healthy Egg Onion Lettuce Wraps!
