Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Prepare the chives by washing and finely chopping them into small pieces, approximately ¼ inch in size.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, swirling gently to coat the pan.
Whisk together 3 large eggs and ½ cup of ricotta cheese until well combined; fold in the chopped chives and season with salt and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to settle for 10 seconds before gently stirring.
Cook over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes, until the eggs are just set but still soft.
Remove from heat, garnish with additional chives, and serve immediately.
