Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons green onions
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until the eggs and milk are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely, ensuring it coats the bottom of the pan.
Once the butter is melted and starting to bubble, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until it starts to set around the edges.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pulling them from the edges towards the center. Continue cooking by gently folding and stirring the eggs occasionally, allowing curds to form.
When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny in certain areas, add the hot sauce. Stir gently to incorporate the hot sauce evenly throughout the scrambled eggs.
Remove the skillet from the heat when the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency, usually when they are still slightly glossy and moist. They will continue to cook further with residual heat.
Transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates. Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy scrambled eggs with additional hot sauce on the side, if desired.
