How to Make Scrambled Eggs And Orange Zest

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of milk, a pinch of salt, and 1 teaspoon of freshly grated orange zest until light and frothy.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted and slightly foamed, pour in the egg mixture.
  3. Cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs begin to set but are still slightly wet. Reduce heat to low if necessary.
  4. Continue to cook, folding the eggs over until they reach your desired consistency, still slightly moist and creamy. Avoid overcooking.
  5. Remove from heat and let sit for a minute to allow the eggs to finish setting. Serve immediately, garnished with a sprig of fresh parsley.
