Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.125 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1 spray Non-stick cooking spray
- 1 teaspoons Hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, skim milk, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and coat it with a spray of non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue to cook, stirring gently every few seconds.
Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, remove the skillet from the heat. They will continue to cook in the residual heat of the pan.
Drizzle hot sauce over the scrambled eggs according to your taste. Feel free to adjust the amount based on your spice preference.
Gently fold the eggs with the spatula to incorporate the hot sauce evenly.
Transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates and garnish with chopped fresh chives if using.
Serve immediately while hot.
