This recipe combines the creaminess of feta cheese with the richness of olive oil to create a savory and satisfying dish. Perfect for a quick weekday breakfast or a leisurely weekend brunch.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl. Beat them lightly with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are well combined.
- Crumble the feta cheese if it isn't already crumbled.
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan on the stove over medium heat.
- Add the olive oil to the pan and allow it to heat up for about 30 seconds.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the pan.
- Let them sit for a few seconds until they begin to set around the edges.
- Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges toward the center. Continue to stir occasionally to scramble the eggs evenly.
- When the eggs are mostly set but still a little runny, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the eggs.
- Continue to gently stir and fold the eggs until they are fully cooked and the feta is well incorporated. This should take just a few more minutes.
- Once the eggs are fully cooked to your liking and the feta is nicely mixed in, remove the pan from the heat.
- Serve immediately while hot. You can enjoy these scrambled eggs on their own, or serve them with toast, fresh vegetables, or your favorite breakfast sides.
Tips:
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the eggs from sticking and to make clean-up easier.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them thoroughly before cooking to ensure a uniform texture.
- Add the feta when the eggs are almost done cooking to keep the cheese from melting too much.
- Cook the eggs on medium-low heat to avoid overcooking and to achieve a creamy consistency.
- Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper for added flavor.
In just a few simple steps, you can transform everyday scrambled eggs into a gourmet breakfast with feta cheese and olive oil. This dish is not only quick and easy to prepare but also packed with flavor. Enjoy it on its own, or pair it with toast and a side of fresh fruit for a well-rounded breakfast that will keep you satisfied all morning long.
