Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces eggs
- 2 pieces hot dogs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional)
Instructions
1. Begin by slicing the hot dogs into thin, round pieces approximately 1/4 inch thick.
2. Beat the eggs in a bowl, then whisk in the milk, salt, and ground black pepper until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it coats the bottom of the pan.
4. Add the sliced hot dogs to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and heated through.
5. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then pour the egg mixture over the hot dogs in the skillet.
6. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds to allow them to begin setting, then gently stir and fold the eggs using a spatula, making sure to scrape the bottom and edges of the skillet.
7. Continue cooking and folding the eggs for 3-4 minutes until they are softly scrambled and cooked to your preferred consistency.
8. Remove the skillet from heat immediately to prevent overcooking and transfer the scrambled eggs with hot dogs to serving plates.
9. Garnish with freshly chopped chives, if desired, and serve warm.
