Soft Scrambled Eggs

For breakfast or dinner, eggs are truly a perfect food.  Protein rich and filling they are always a good choice. This recipe from Bon Appetit creates light and creamy scrambled eggs. I served this with oven baked Black Forest Bacon from Trader Joe's, sooo good!
 

INGREDIENTS 

  • 4 large eggs
  • ¼ TSP kosher salt plus more to taste
  • Ground pepper to taste
  • 1 TBS unsalted butter

PREPARATION

  • Crack eggs into a medium bowl and add salt. Using a fork or whisk to whip eggs until completely combined and pale yellow in color.

  • Cook butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until just foaming. Add eggs and cook, undisturbed, until a thin layer of cooked egg appears around the edge of the skillet.

  • Using a spatula and broad sweeping motions, push eggs all the way around the circumference of the skillet, then across the bottom. Continue to push eggs around and across skillet until fluffy and barely set, about 2 minutes; they should still look runny on top. 

  • Serve immediately and season to taste.
