Cooking Instructions

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions, bell pepper, and broccoli, and sauté for 2 minutes.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, parsley, oregano, and hot sauce until the whites are completely incorporated. Pour the eggs over the vegetables and season with salt and pepper.

Sprinkle the cheeses on the surface and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Reduce the heat to the lowest possible level.

Cook without disturbing the egg mixture until the eggs are set, about 0 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

How Long?

The recipe sounds delicious, but the instruction to "Cook without disturbing the egg mixture until the eggs are set, about 0 minutes" doesn't make sense. Must be a typo.
