Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 quarter cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.125 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until it is uniform and slightly frothy.
Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely, coating the entire surface of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until it just begins to set around the edges.
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center to form soft folds. Continue this process, making sure to scrape the bottom of the skillet often.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked and still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Continue to cook while stirring gently until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness. They should be soft and creamy, not overcooked.
Remove the skillet from heat and immediately garnish the eggs with chopped chives and parsley.
Serve warm on a plate or toast and enjoy your deluxe scrambled eggs!
