Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 sliced onion and cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add 4 sliced sausages and cook until browned and heated through, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Step 3

    In a bowl, beat 6 eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour over the sausage mixture and let set for 1 minute.

  4. Step 4

    Scramble gently with a spatula until eggs are just set but still creamy, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

  5. Step 5

    Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top and let melt. Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped parsley and serve hot.
