Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
- Slices of toasted sourdough bread (for serving)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit for a few seconds without stirring, then gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center using a spatula. Continue this process until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes.
- Sprinkle the chopped chives over the eggs and give a gentle stir to incorporate them through.
- Serve the scrambled eggs immediately with slices of toasted sourdough bread on the side.
Helpful Tips
For the creamiest scrambled eggs, stir gently and avoid overcooking. Try substituting milk with cream for a richer texture. Beginners might find it easier to control the cooking temperature by keeping the heat low and slow.
Storage Instructions
If you have leftovers, store the scrambled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat.
