Commander Norl's Stellar Scramble
Inspired by the ever-orderly Commander Norl, this breakfast scramble is a precisely measured, yet delightfully flavorful dish. It’s hearty enough to fuel a day of intergalactic exploration, with a vibrant color palette reminiscent of a sunrise over Planet Stork.
Directions
- 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds.
- 2
Melt the unsalted butter in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring the bottom of the pan is evenly coated.
- 3
Add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften but still retain a slight crispness.
- 4
Stir in the crumbled cooked breakfast sausage and cook for another 1-2 minutes, just to heat through.
- 5
Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables and sausage. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- 6
As the eggs begin to set, gently push the cooked portions from the edges towards the center of the pan with a heat-resistant spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
- 7
Continue cooking and gently folding for 4-6 minutes, or until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist. Do not overcook.
- 8
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the scramble. Cover the skillet for 1 minute to allow the cheese to melt.
- 9
Divide the scramble evenly among serving plates and garnish with fresh chives before serving. Serve immediately.
