Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 pieces bread slices
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is fully combined and the yolks and whites are completely blended.
Place a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, swirling it around the skillet to ensure even coverage.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit, undisturbed, for just a few seconds until it starts to set around the edges.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue to gently stir and fold the eggs over themselves as they cook, ensuring they remain soft and don't form large curds.
As the eggs begin to thicken but are still slightly runny, remove the skillet from the heat. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs to a perfect creamy consistency.
While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread slices to your desired level of crispiness using a toaster or by spreading butter on them and placing them in a separate skillet until golden brown.
Place the toasted bread on plates. Gently spoon the scrambled eggs over each slice of toast.
Garnish with chopped chives before serving hot.
