Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups Broccoli florets
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Chop the broccoli florets into small, bite-sized pieces.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn.
Add the chopped broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly crisp.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the cooked broccoli and garlic.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir and fold the mixture with a spatula to create soft curds.
Continue cooking and stirring until the eggs are just set but still moist, about 2-3 minutes.
If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and fold it into the scramble during the last minute of cooking.
Remove the skillet from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy!
