Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup bell pepper (red or green), diced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, then whisk together until well-blended.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
Add the diced bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes, or until they start to soften.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the bell peppers in the skillet.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs and push them around the skillet as they begin to set. Continue stirring until the eggs are cooked to your desired level of doneness, about 5-6 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the scrambled eggs rest for a minute to settle.
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
