Classic Scrambled Eggs, Chives

Method

Classic Scrambled Eggs, Chives

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Crack the large eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

  2. 2

    Chop the Chives

    Using a sharp knife, finely chop the chives and set them aside for later.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    Place a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter to the pan and allow it to melt, swirling it around to coat the bottom of the skillet.

  4. 4

    Cook the Eggs

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until it begins to set around the edges.

  5. 5

    Scramble the Eggs

    Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges toward the center. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly set but still slightly runny.

  6. 6

    Add Chives

    Once the eggs are nearly cooked to your liking, sprinkle the chopped chives over the eggs and gently fold them in.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the scrambled eggs from the heat and transfer them to a plate. Serve immediately while hot.
