Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, crack 4 large eggs and add 2 tablespoons of milk. Whisk until smooth and frothy, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow it to melt completely, swirling to coat the pan.
- Gently add ½ cup of diced bell peppers and ¼ cup of diced red onions to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly over the vegetables. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1 minute.
- Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, folding the cooked edges into the center every 20-30 seconds for 2-3 minutes until softly scrambled.
- Just before the eggs are fully set, sprinkle in ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese, along with the bacon bits and ¼ cup of chopped tomatoes. Stir to combine.
- Remove the skillet from the heat while the eggs are still slightly undercooked. This allows them to finish cooking from residual heat.
- Spoon the Loaded Scrambled Eggs onto warm plates, garnishing with chopped fresh chives. Serve immediately, drizzling optional hot sauce on top.
