Directions

Prep 5 minCook 5 min

1
Whisk the eggs in a medium bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and beat to incorporate.
2
Heat a 10-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Add butter to the pan and, using a rubber spatula, swirl until it’s melted and foamy and the pan is evenly coated. Pour in the eggs, sprinkle with chives and tarragon, and let sit undisturbed until eggs just start to set around the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes.
3
Using the rubber spatula, push the eggs from the edges into the center. Let sit again for about 30 seconds, then repeat pushing the eggs from the edges into the center every 30 seconds until just set, for a total cooking time of about 5 minutes.
4
Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately.
