Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering but not browned.
  2. Step 2: Whisk 6 large eggs with 1/4 cup heavy cream and 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives until fully blended and slightly frothy.
  3. Step 3: Pour egg mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula until softly set and custardy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Add 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2 more minutes until tomatoes just begin to soften and release their juices.
