Step 1
Crack eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until no white streaks remain.
Step 2
Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium until it foams and smells nutty.
Step 3
Pour in eggs and let sit 30 seconds, then drag edges to center with a spatula, tilting skillet so raw egg fills gaps.

When top is nearly set but still slightly wet, scatter cheese over one half.
