Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- ¼ teaspoon sazon
- ½ Roma tomato diced
- 1 scallion finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs and sazon for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and scallions, season with salt and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the eggs to the skillet and allow them to cook for a few seconds without stirring. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom and sides of the skillet producing curds of scrambled eggs.
- Stir and fold the eggs every few seconds. I cooked them for 2-3 minutes.
- Season with salt right before serving and enjoy!
Notes
- Although I added a pinch of sazon, I still seasoned the eggs with kosher salt right before serving. Make sure to season to taste.
- Don't overcook the eggs or break them up too much!
- Beat the eggs and sazon rigorously for a few minutes before adding it to the skillet.
- Feel free to serve it with hot sauce for extra flavor.
