Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.125 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill (chopped)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk together until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely, swirling the pan to coat evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 10-15 seconds to begin setting.
Once the edges start to set, use a heat-resistant spatula to gently stir and fold the eggs, pushing them from the edges toward the center to form soft curds.
Continue cooking and stirring the eggs slowly. Remove the skillet from the heat just before the eggs are fully set; the residual heat will finish the cooking process, ensuring the eggs remain tender.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley, chives, and dill over the eggs, folding them in gently to distribute the herbs evenly.
Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with extra herbs if desired, and enjoy!
