Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
Instructions
Begin by preparing your ingredients. Peel and finely chop the yellow onion. Finely chop the fresh chives and set them aside for garnish.
Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them lightly with a fork or whisk. Add salt and black pepper to the eggs and mix well.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add coconut oil. Once the oil has melted and is shimmering, add the chopped onion.
Sauté the onions for about 5-7 minutes until they are soft and translucent, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the beaten eggs over the onions in the skillet.
Gently stir the eggs continuously with a spatula, sweeping it across the bottom and sides of the pan to prevent sticking. Cook until the eggs are just set but still slightly creamy.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the residual heat finish cooking the eggs.
Divide the scrambled eggs onto two plates and garnish with the chopped fresh chives.
Serve immediately for a wholesome and satisfying Whole30 compliant breakfast.
