Scrambled Eggs with Feta and Dill
These Scrambled Eggs with Feta and Dill are an easy way to mix fresh herbs and cheese into plain ol' eggs. Just a few extra ingredients will make these eggs fancy enough for a crowd or an elegant meal for two.
Equipment
- non-stick pan
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ teaspoon Kosher or fine sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese for the best taste, buy a block of feta and crumble yourself
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, salt and pepper. Set aside.8 large eggs, ¼ teaspoon Kosher or fine sea salt, ⅛ teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- In a medium-sized pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- When the butter is melted, add the eggs. Let the eggs sit for a bit without disturbing them. With a spatula, slowly start to move the eggs from the sides toward the middle of the pan, allowing big curds to form. Repeat this process, until the eggs are almost set, about 7-10 minutes. Add the feta and dill. Continue to slowly stir until just set, then remove from the heat (they will continue to cook off the heat).½ cup crumbled feta cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
- Remove from pan, and add additional feta and dill if desired. Serve alongside toast or your favorite breakfast treat.
Notes
- Scrambled eggs are best eaten right away. Make as many as you think you will eat (generally 2-3 eggs per person) to avoid leftovers. However, you can safely store leftover eggs in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just note that they will dry out a bit and may become rubbery after reheating.
- Leftover scrambled eggs can be used in breakfast tortillas, tacos, or a simple breakfast sandwich.
