How To MakeDiet Type: Low-carb
Shopping List
- 3 eggs
- 3 ounces lump crabmeat, drained
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 scallions, chopped (white and light green parts only)
- 1 tablespoon butter (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced
- spicy mayo, to taste (Note 1)
- salt and sriracha, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Stir together the drained crabmeat and a spoonful of spicy mayo. Set aside.
- Step 2: Whisk the eggs in a small bowl so that no whites remain at all. Set aside. Melt the butter in a medium sized non-stick skillet over medium heat. The butter should lightly coat the whole pan.
- Step 3: Add the eggs to the warm butter. Sprinkle the crabmeat, cheese, and scallions over the eggs. Watch for the edges of the eggs to barely start to set, and then use a rubber spatula to gently push the edges towards the center of the pan. Don't flip the curds over, just keep pushing them into the center and allow the uncooked egg to flow into the spaces. Note: For a video reference, check out this video.
- Step 4: Once the eggs begin to hold their shape, but are still a bit creamy, take the pan off the heat. Gently fold the eggs over to cook the interior, but don't stir it much or you will lose the nice fluffiness.
- Serve: Plate the eggs and top with sliced avocado and sriracha. Season with salt and enjoy.
Recipe Notes
Note 1: To make a spicy mayo, stir together a few spoonfuls of mayo with a little sriracha until it is very pale pink in color.
