Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cup low-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons protein powder (unflavored)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and add the low-fat milk.
Whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined to ensure a smooth texture.
Gradually sift in the unflavored protein powder while whisking continuously. This will help prevent any lumps from forming.
Add salt and black pepper to the mixture, and whisk again until all ingredients are fully mixed.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil coats the entire bottom surface of the skillet.
Pour a thin layer of the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the skillet to spread the mixture evenly.
Cook the egg until set, approximately 2-3 minutes, without stirring. The edges should start to lift from the skillet.
With a spatula, carefully flip the egg layer to cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the cooked egg pancake from the skillet and transfer it to a cutting board.
Repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture.
Once all the egg mixtures have been cooked, stack the egg pancakes and slice them into strips of about 1 inch wide.
Sprinkle chopped chives over the top for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy your high-protein egg strips!
