Gather all the ingredients. Use a sharp knife to finely chop the fresh chives and parsley.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk them lightly until the yolks and whites are just combined.
Add a pinch of black pepper and the garlic powder to the eggs and whisk again to incorporate.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set and slightly creamy.
While the eggs are cooking, halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside.
Once the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness, remove them from the heat.
Transfer the eggs to a serving plate and top them with the fresh chives, parsley, and cherry tomatoes.
Serve immediately while hot.
