Great recipe! Included all the ingredients I had on hand, (did not have the basil) and it still turned out well. Might need to cook it a little longer at the end than one minute to keep the eggs from being runny inside. (I also cooked on medium heat, rather than medium high. This may account for the discrepancy.)
