Herb's take
Inspired by Italy’s love of the simple and sublime, this skillet brings together eggs, butter, and Parmesan in a way that’s so much more than breakfast. You’ll master the art of creamy scrambled eggs and the stovetop melt for a dinner that feels both rustic and restaurant-worthy.

Instructions
- 01Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk with the milk until completely blended and lightly frothy.
- 02Melt the butter in a 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until foaming.
- 03Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Stir gently and constantly with a spatula, scraping the bottom and sides as curds form.
- 04When the eggs are mostly set but still a bit glossy and loose, remove the skillet from the heat.
- 05Sprinkle the Parmesan evenly over the eggs. Cover the skillet with a lid and let sit off-heat for 2 minutes for the cheese to melt in a blanket over the eggs.
- 06Uncover, sprinkle with parsley, and season generously with salt and black pepper. Serve directly from the skillet or transfer to warm plates.
