instructions
    1

    In a bowl, crack the 4 eggs and whisk them lightly until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

    2

    Add in the salt and pepper to the whisked eggs and mix together.

    3

    Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the tablespoon of butter. Let it melt and coat the bottom of the pan.

    4

    Once the butter is melted and begins to bubble, pour in the egg mixture.

    5

    Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, then gently stir and fold the eggs with a spatula, allowing them to cook evenly.

    6

    After about 2 minutes of cooking, when the eggs are still slightly runny, add in the 1 cup of cheese.

    7

    Continue to stir gently until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked, which should take about another 1-2 minutes.

    8

    Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately for best flavor.

    9

    Enjoy your Uova strapazzate con queso warm, straight from the pan!
