Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons bleu cheese
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon chives
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is well blended and slightly frothy.
Crumble the bleu cheese into small pieces, if not already crumbled, and set aside.
Chop the fresh parsley and chives finely, and set them aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, swirling it around the pan to coat evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 1–2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the crumbled bleu cheese evenly over one half of the omelet, followed by the parsley and chives.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Press gently to seal and let cook for another 1–2 minutes until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully set.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
