Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a small bowl.
Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Whisk them together using a fork or a whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter.
Once the butter is fully melted and begins to foam, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently pull the edges of the omelet toward the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to move to the edges.
Continue to cook the omelet for another 1-2 minutes, or until the center is almost set.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese onto one half of the omelet.
Using the spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half over the cheese.
Cook for another minute to allow the cheese to melt thoroughly.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh chives.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious classic omelet!
