Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and dice them into small cubes, about 1/4 inch in size, to ensure even cooking.
Spray a non-stick skillet lightly with olive oil spray over medium heat.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook them for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender. If necessary, cover the skillet with a lid to help them cook faster.
While the potatoes are cooking, in a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg whites and low-fat milk until well combined and slightly frothy. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
Once the potatoes are done, push them to one side of the skillet.
Spray a little more olive oil spray on the empty side of the skillet and pour in the egg mixture.
Allow the eggs to sit undisturbed for about 1 minute, then gently stir and scramble them with a spatula, gradually mixing them with the potatoes.
Continue cooking and stirring the eggs until they are just set but still soft, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the scrambled eggs and potatoes with freshly chopped chives.
Serve immediately, dividing the mixture between two plates, and enjoy your low-fat, protein-rich breakfast!
