Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 slices Canadian bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt fully and coat the pan evenly.
Roughly chop the Canadian bacon into small pieces. Add the chopped Canadian bacon to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and heated through. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
Pour the whisked egg mixture into the hot skillet, tilting the pan slightly to spread the eggs evenly. Cook without stirring for about 1-2 minutes, or until the bottom starts to set but the top remains slightly wet.
Sprinkle the sautéed Canadian bacon evenly over one half of the omelet. Then, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the bacon.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelet over the cheese and bacon filling. Press lightly to seal, and continue cooking for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
