Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add the milk, salt, and ground black pepper.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the eggs and milk are well combined.
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter.
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Allow the eggs to sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, bringing the cooked outer edges towards the center.
Continue to gently fold and stir the eggs every few seconds until they are mostly cooked but still slightly runny.
Right before the eggs are fully set, remove the skillet from the heat to prevent overcooking.
Stir in the hot sauce to taste, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with chopped fresh chives.
