Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 6 pieces black olives
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk them together with the milk until well combined.
Slice the black olives into thin rounds and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for 20-30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, scraping the bottom of the skillet to form soft curds.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked, add the sliced olives, salt, and black pepper. Continue stirring gently.
Cook the scrambled eggs until they are just set but still slightly creamy. Be careful not to overcook.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately with toasted bread or as desired.
