Ingredients
Method
- Rinse and chop the cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and red onion into small, even pieces and set aside.
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, add the salt and black pepper, and whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
- Add the red onion and sauté for 2 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
- Stir in the bell peppers and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until slightly softened and lightly colored.
- Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until they begin to soften and release some juices.
- Reduce the heat to low, then pour the beaten eggs evenly over the vegetables in the skillet.
- Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center, scraping the bottom of the skillet continuously for 2 to 3 minutes until the eggs form soft curds and look just set and slightly glossy.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and immediately sprinkle the feta and fresh herbs evenly over the eggs.
- Drizzle with hot sauce or lemon juice if using, then serve the scrambled eggs hot, divided between two plates.
Notes
- For a vegan version, use scrambled tofu or a seasoned chickpea batter instead of eggs and dairy-free feta.
- Chop the vegetables, herbs, and crumble the feta up to 2 days ahead to make breakfast even faster.
- Remove the eggs from the heat while they still look a bit soft, as they will continue to set in the hot pan.
- Leftovers keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently over low heat.
