Instead of throwing out last night's leftover grilled chicken breast, fold it into eggs scrambled with butter, onion, pepper and tomato for a filling brunch plate. It is a carb-free, protein-heavy option for anyone eating keto.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cook the vegetables

5 min

Melt the butter in a pan, add the onion and sweet pepper and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes until soft.

2

Add the tomato

3 min

Add the diced tomato and cook for another 3 minutes until it releases its juice and reduces slightly.

3

Warm the chicken

2 min

Add the shredded grilled chicken and stir for 2 minutes to warm through.

4

Scramble the eggs

3 min

Crack the eggs, whisk with salt and black pepper, pour into the pan and scramble for 3 minutes until just set but still a little wet. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if you like and serve hot.

Reminder

Add the chicken to the eggs last; adding it too early dries it out and toughens it. Take the pan off the heat while the eggs still look slightly wet, since residual heat keeps cooking them. Allergens: contains egg and milk (butter).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Leftover meatballs or roasted meat can replace the chicken using the same logic; what matters is that the meat is already cooked and cooled.

Elimde ızgara tavuk yoktu ama fırında kalan tavuk butu vardı, kemiğinden ayırıp aynı şekilde kullandım, iyi sonuç verdi. Dondurulmuş kalan tavukla da yapılabilir mi, yoksa buz çözülünce sulanır mı?

Fırında kalan but kesinlikle olur, siz de doğru yapmışsınız. Dondurulmuş tavukla da yapılır ama önce buzdolabında tam çözdürüp fazla suyunu kağıt havluyla almanızı öneririm, yoksa tava suluyor.
