Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and whisk them thoroughly with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Finely chop the fresh chives and grate the Swiss cheese, if not already shredded, and set them aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or sauté pan over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter.
Once the butter is melted and begins to foam, reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg mixture.
Allow the eggs to set slightly on the bottom, then gently stir with a spatula, folding the eggs from the edges toward the center to keep them soft and creamy.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked, sprinkle in the shredded Swiss cheese and continue to fold and stir gently to ensure the cheese melts evenly without overcooking the eggs.
Once the eggs are creamy and just set (still slightly runny but no longer liquid), remove the skillet from the heat immediately.
Sprinkle the chopped chives over the scrambled eggs and give a final gentle stir. Serve hot with toast, fresh fruit, or your favorite breakfast side dish.
