Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the onion.
In a medium non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 8 minutes. Reduce the heat if they begin to brown too quickly.
While the onions are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl, add the salt and pepper, and beat well until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Once the onions are caramelized, transfer them to a small plate. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and let it heat for a few seconds.
Pour the beaten eggs into the pan, ensuring they evenly cover the bottom. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle the caramelized onions over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the onions. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set but still soft inside.
Gently slide the omelette onto a serving plate. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
