Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 small red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small green bell pepper, diced
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk together until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat 1 teaspoon of butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the butter has melted, add half of the diced red and green bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the peppers are slightly softened.
Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet over the peppers, tilting the pan to ensure the mixture spreads evenly.
Let the mixture cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set. Using a spatula, gently lift the edges and tilt the pan to let uncooked eggs flow underneath.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese evenly over one side of the omelet.
When the omelet is fully set but still slightly moist on top, use a spatula to carefully fold it in half to cover the filling. Cook for another 30 seconds, then slide it onto a plate.
Repeat the process with the remaining butter, bell peppers, egg mixture, and feta to make the second omelet.
Garnish both omelets with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
