Crack 3 medium-sized eggs into a bowl and lightly whip them until the white and yolk are completely combined.

Add a good amount of unsalted butter to a non-stick skillet and let it dissolve without foaming.

Season the eggs with salt and mix them gently.

Heat the skillet on a low flame, ensuring it is still quite high but not foamy.

Once the butter is melted, pour in the eggs and start moving the pan slightly to ensure even cooking.

Gently pull the cooked edges into the middle while tilting the pan to let uncooked eggs flow to the edges.

Add salt, pepper, and chives to the eggs while they cook.

Fold the omelette in half and let it cook for a few more seconds to achieve a slightly gooey center.
