3 large egg*, 2 tablespoon butter
Turn the heat to medium-low.
Cook, stirring with the pan 30 seconds on the heat and 30 seconds off the heat, scraping the edges of the pan, about three to four minutes.
After the eggs are 80% done, remove the skillet from the heat and season with salt, pepper, and chicken bouillon powder.

*Use fresh eggs for the best results. To test your eggs’ freshness, place them in a bowl of water. Fresh eggs sink, and older eggs float.
For an even richer flavor and creamier texture, try folding crème fraiche into the eggs just before serving.
