Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat them with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Set aside.
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan on the stove over medium heat.
- Lightly coat the surface of the pan with a short spray of cooking spray oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the preheated pan.
- Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for a few seconds until they start to set around the edges.
- Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the pan toward the center.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny (they will continue to cook with the residual heat, so you don't want to overcook them).
- Once the eggs are almost done, add the tablespoon of salsa sauce to the pan.
- Stir to combine, allowing the salsa to heat through and mix with the eggs.
- Continue to cook for another minute or until the eggs are fully set and have absorbed the flavors of the salsa.
- Remove the pan from the heat.
- Transfer the Southwest Salsa Scrambled Eggs to a plate immediately to stop the cooking process.
- You can garnish with additional salsa, chopped fresh cilantro, or a sprinkle of shredded cheese for added flavor if desired.
Tips:
- Use non-stick cookware to ensure the eggs don’t stick and are easier to clean up.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly before cooking to achieve a uniform and fluffy texture.
- Cook the eggs on low to medium heat to prevent them from becoming rubbery and overcooked.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of salt and pepper while whisking the eggs.
- Consider adding some finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers or onions for added texture and nutrition.
- Garnish with fresh herbs such as cilantro or green onions to enhance the flavor of the salsa.
