Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cooking Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Polish kielbasa sausage, sliced into half-moons
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
Optional Topping
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Brown the kielbasa: Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced Polish kielbasa sausage and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is nicely browned and aromatic.
- Sauté vegetables: Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet with the kielbasa. Continue to cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion softens and the bell pepper is tender.
- Cook the scrambled eggs: Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture evenly over the kielbasa and vegetables. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to set around the edges.
- Scramble gently: Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, scraping from the edges toward the center, forming soft curds. Continue cooking and gently stirring until the eggs are just set but still creamy and moist.
- Finish and serve: Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh chives if desired. Serve the scrambled eggs with kielbasa immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a spicier version, use spicy kielbasa or add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
- Stir in shredded cheese such as cheddar or mozzarella just before the eggs finish cooking for added richness and flavor.
- This dish pairs well with toasted bread or fresh fruit for a complete breakfast.
