1
Crack the Eggs
Crack the 4 large eggs into a mixing bowl. Ensure no shell pieces are left in the bowl.
2
Add Milk
Pour in 2 tablespoons of milk into the bowl with the eggs.
3
Season the Mixture
Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the egg mixture. Use a whisk or fork to beat the eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.

4
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. If using butter, add 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan and let it melt, coating the bottom of the pan.
5
Add the Egg Mixture
Once the butter is melted and bubbling slightly, pour the scrambled egg mixture into the skillet.
6
Scramble the Eggs
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds. Then, using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges toward the center. Repeat this process every 30 seconds until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
7
Add Optional Ingredients
If desired, sprinkle in the chopped chives and grated cheese during the last minute of cooking. Gently fold them into the eggs.
8
Serve
Once the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness, remove the skillet from the heat and serve the scrambled eggs immediately on a plate.
