Description
A delicious and creamy scrambled eggs recipe that ensures perfect texture and flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Chopped fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until the edges start to set.
- Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, pushing them from the edges toward the center. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places, about 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from heat. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs, so be careful not to overcook them.
- Serve immediately, garnished with chopped chives or parsley if desired.
Notes
- For a cheesy twist, add 1/4 cup of shredded cheese (like cheddar or feta) to the egg mixture before cooking.
- For added flavor, sauté diced onions, bell peppers, or mushrooms in the skillet before adding the eggs.
