Creamy, garlicky scrambled eggs in about 10 minutes with just a few ingredients.

  • Use medium-low heat and remove while slightly moist.

Ingredients

Ingredients: 4 large eggs, 1 small clove garlic (minced), 2 tbsp grated Parmesan, pinch salt and pepper, 1 tsp butter or oil. Whisk eggs with Parmesan, salt and pepper until combined.

Quick cooking steps

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low and add butter or oil. Sauté minced garlic 20–30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in egg mixture, let it set slightly, then gently fold cooked edges toward the center until soft curds form; remove while still moist. Serve topped with extra Parmesan if desired.

FAQs

How do I keep scrambled eggs soft and creamy? Use low heat and remove from the pan while still slightly moist; carryover heat finishes them without drying out.
Can I prepare the egg mixture ahead of time? Yes—whisk eggs well and let them sit a minute before cooking; gentle folding instead of constant stirring yields soft curds.
What are simple variations or add-ins? Yes—add chopped herbs, cooked mushrooms, spinach, or a spoonful of cream; for more bite, swap Pecorino or Asiago for Parmesan.
