Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons half-and-half
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon Carolina Reaper Pepper Infused Olive Oil
  • 1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Equipment

  • 1 Medium Bowl For whisking the eggs
  • 1 whisk For blending the eggs smoothly
  • 1 Nonstick Skillet 8 to 10 inch pan
  • 1 Silicone Spatula For soft scrambling
  • 1 set Measuring spoons For oil, butter, and seasoning
  • 2 Serving Plates Warm if possible

Method
 

Instructions
  1. 1. Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, add the half-and-half and kosher salt, then whisk until the eggs look smooth and fully blended.
  2. 2. Set a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. When the butter melts and foams, reduce the heat slightly so the pan stays gentle.
  3. 3. Pour in the eggs and let them sit for a few seconds, then use a silicone spatula to stir slowly, scraping the bottom and folding the eggs into soft curds.
  4. 4. When the eggs are mostly set but still glossy, stir in the shredded pepper jack cheese and keep folding until the cheese begins to melt.
  5. 5. Drizzle in the Carolina Reaper Pepper Infused Olive Oil and fold once more so the pepper heat spreads through the eggs without overcooking them.
  6. 6. Remove the skillet from the heat, spoon the eggs onto warm plates, and finish with chopped chives and a pinch of black pepper.
  7. 7. Serve right away while the eggs are soft, creamy, and still hot from the pan.

Notes

For the softest texture, keep the skillet at medium-low and avoid rushing the scramble. Add the infused oil at the end so its pepper character stays bright and clean. This recipe is best served immediately.
