2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel

Go around the edge of the skillet with a spatula, slicing the egg mixture away from the pan and tilting it at an angle so the raw eggs run underneath to cook.

Once the eggs are mostly set, sprinkle cheese on top.

Transfer to oven to finish cooking under the broiler for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese begins to brown.
