Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
Mushrooms:
- 1/2 cup mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or butter
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Sides and Seasonings:
- 1/2 avocado (sliced)
- 1/2 cup steamed broccoli
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil or butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Crack eggs into a mixing bowl, incorporating heavy cream, salt, and freshly ground pepper. Whisk until ingredients are thoroughly combined and slightly frothy.
- Select a non-stick skillet and melt butter over low-medium heat, ensuring the surface is evenly coated. Pour whisked egg mixture into the pan.
- Using a silicone spatula, gently fold eggs continuously, creating soft, creamy curds. Cook approximately 3-4 minutes until eggs reach a luxurious, velvety consistency without becoming dry or rubbery.
- In a separate skillet, warm olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms, sprinkling with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Sauté mushrooms for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until edges turn golden brown and centers become tender and caramelized.
- Steam broccoli in a covered pot for 3-4 minutes, maintaining a vibrant green color and crisp texture. Drain immediately to prevent overcooking.
- Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and slice into elegant, fan-shaped segments.
- Arrange creamy scrambled eggs as the central element on the plate, surrounding them with sautéed mushrooms, steamed broccoli, and avocado slices.
- Enhance the dish by drizzling broccoli with a touch of olive oil or melted butter. Garnish with additional black pepper or red chili flakes for a subtle kick of heat.
Notes
- Customize egg texture by adjusting cooking temperature and stirring frequency for softer or firmer scrambled eggs.
- Use unsalted butter for better control of salt levels and to enhance natural egg flavors.
- Slice mushrooms uniformly to ensure even cooking and golden-brown caramelization.
- Choose high-fat dairy like heavy cream for authentic keto-friendly scrambled eggs with luxurious creamy texture.
