Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 0.5 cup (sliced) black olives
• 0.5 cup (sliced) green olives
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh parsley
• 2 slices bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Let the butter melt and coat the bottom of the skillet evenly.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and pour the whisked eggs into the pan. Stir gently with a spatula, scraping the bottom frequently to create soft egg curds.

Step 4

When the eggs are about halfway cooked but still quite soft, add the sliced black and green olives. Fold them gently into the eggs to combine.

Step 5

Continue cooking the eggs until they are just set but still creamy. Avoid overcooking to preserve the soft texture.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley on top for a fresh and aromatic finish.

Step 7

Serve the Eggs Olives immediately on their own or with slices of toasted bread on the side.
