Instructions

Whisk the eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.
Cook the shrimp: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Cook the garlic: Add the minced garlic to the same pan and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Scramble the eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly soft.
Combine shrimp and eggs: Add the cooked shrimp back into the pan and stir to combine with the eggs.
Garnish and serve: Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

Use medium heat to avoid overcooking the shrimp and eggs.
You can substitute milk with cream or a dairy-free alternative if preferred.
For added crunch, consider garnishing with chopped peanuts or sesame seeds.
Serve with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
Make sure shrimp is fully peeled and deveined for best texture.
