Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, for garnish)
- 2 slices Bread (optional, for serving)
Instructions
1. Measure out 1 cup of frozen peas and set them aside. If desired, defrost the peas by running them under warm water for 1-2 minutes.
2. Crack 3 eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk them thoroughly with 2 tablespoons of whole milk, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper.
3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt and foam slightly, but do not let it brown.
4. Add the peas to the skillet and sauté them for 2-3 minutes until they're heated through and tender.
5. Lower the heat to medium-low. Pour the beaten eggs over the peas in the skillet, gently stirring with a spatula to cook the eggs evenly.
6. Scramble the eggs slowly, gently folding them as they cook to create soft, fluffy curds. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
7. Remove the skillet from heat just before the eggs are fully cooked, as they will continue to cook slightly from residual heat.
8. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of chopped chives for a fresh, herby finish.
9. Serve immediately, either on its own or with toast or bread on the side. Enjoy this simple, comforting dish in your coziest pajamas!
