In a medium-sized mixing bowl, crack the 4 large eggs and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Add 2 tablespoons of cream cheese and 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese to the eggs. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth. Season with 0.25 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of ground black pepper, and mix again.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Allow it to melt and coat the entire surface of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure an even layer. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the edges start to set and the top looks slightly dry.
Using a spatula, carefully flip the egg mixture over and cook the other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until completely set and lightly golden.
Transfer the cooked egg sheet onto a cutting board and let it cool for a minute. Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to slice the egg sheet into thin strips, resembling pasta noodles.
Serve the Keto Egg Strips with your choice of keto-friendly sauce or as a side dish. Enjoy immediately for the best texture.
