Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk or cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl and add the milk or cream and salt.

Step 2

Using a whisk or a fork, beat the mixture until the yolks and whites are fully blended and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick skillet over low to medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt, coating the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and slightly foamy, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.

Step 5

Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 10–15 seconds, then use a silicone spatula to gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center, creating soft folds.

Step 6

Continue to gently stir and fold the eggs, ensuring they cook evenly without becoming overdone. Lower the heat if necessary to avoid browning.

Step 7

When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly glossy, remove them from the heat. The residual heat will finish cooking them.

Step 8

Season the scrambled eggs with black pepper to taste and garnish with chopped chives or parsley if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately with toast, avocado, or your favorite breakfast sides.
