Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 g California pink shrimp
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tbsp Half-and-half cream
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 whole Avocado
- 6 whole Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
- 50 g Shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Peel and devein the California pink shrimp, if not already done, and pat them dry with paper towels.
Dice the garlic clove finely, halve the cherry tomatoes, and chop the fresh parsley.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs together with the half-and-half cream, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Add the chopped garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, just until pink and opaque. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
Pour the egg mixture into the same skillet, turning the heat down to low. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes until the edges are set but the top is still slightly runny.
Evenly distribute the cooked shrimp, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese across one side of the omelette.
Gently fold the omelette in half using a spatula and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fully set.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with freshly sliced avocado and chopped parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
