Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 pieces sausage links
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions
Instructions
Begin by preparing the sausages. In a non-stick skillet, cook the sausage links over medium heat for about 6-8 minutes or until they are fully cooked and browned. Rotate them occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the skillet and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk well until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed for a few seconds until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center of the pan. Continue cooking and gently folding the eggs until they are mostly set but still slightly runny.
Add the sliced sausages into the egg mixture and gently incorporate them into the eggs, allowing the eggs to finish cooking while being careful not to overcook them.
Once the eggs are done to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat.
Garnish the scrambled eggs with chopped chives or green onions for an added touch of flavor and color.
Serve immediately with toast or your choice of breakfast sides. Enjoy your hearty scrambled eggs with sausage!
