Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 quarter cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the eggs are fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Once the butter has melted and is just starting to foam, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the eggs in a circular motion, allowing curds to form. Be sure to scrape the edges and bottom of the pan to prevent sticking.
As the eggs start to set but are still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Continue gently folding the eggs until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and fluffy. This should take 4–5 minutes in total.
Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent overcooking.
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
